UNGA on Wednesday adopted a resolution titled 'Education for Democracy' that reaffirms the right of everyone to education. The resolution, which was co-sponsored by India, recognises that "education for all" contributes to the strengthening of democracy. Earlier in March 2015, the UN General Assembly adopted a similar resolution encouraging all UN entities to use education to promote peace, human rights, and democracy.
