During their statutory board meeting in Vienna, members have voted to join and support the campaign #bringbackourgirls.
ESU believes that access to education is one of the most important principles and fully condemns the kidnapping of the around 230 girls from their school in Nigeria.
This disruption of the girls education is a way of preventing from them accessing their full humans rights and their right to self determination.
ESU calls for action from the Nigerian government and local authorities to urgently work to identify the location of the girls and release them from their captivity. ESU stands in solidarity with those working to bring the girls back and fight for girls’ right to education.
