We learn from an article entitled, "Goals adopted in Dakar at the World Education Forum ... cover the whole educational spectrum, from early childhood, primary and secondary education, through to vocational programmes for youth and literacy programmes for adults."

In the video, below, Ban Ki-Moon simplifies the progrm. The goals for Education First, he explains, "are simple":

First: Put every child in school.

Second: Improve the quality of learning.

And third: Foster global citizenship.
