2022 International Education Power Rankings
During COVID 19, most countries saw a drop in their nation’s education performance
The International Education Power Rankings measure the effect education has on a nation’s economic and social development. Because of COVID-19 the pandemic has disrupted education in over 150 countries and affected 1.6 billion students. In response, many countries have implemented some form of remote learning.
Africa and South Asia, on the other hand, accounted for roughly two-thirds of the world’s schoolchildren who were unable to access remote digital learning. These children have fallen behind in their educational and social development because of a lack of access to the internet.
In the next 20 to 30 years, the uneven economic infrastructure and inadequate social development in those countries will worsen. The International Education Power Rankings will show you which countries are suffering and which are at risk of civil unrest.
We hope that enough people are paying attention and are willing to help solve Africa and Asia’s problems before they turn into a holocaust.
