Iranian educators are being silenced for demanding justice in schools.
Arrests, solitary confinement, and forced exile are used as tools of repression.

Why is union activism treated like a crime?

New #TALIS2024 data exposes systemic barriers driving teachers from the profession.
These aren't isolated incidents. They're policy failures.
Teachers deserve environments where they can thrive, not just survive.
The evidence exists. Time to #GoPublic and invest in teachers.

🎓 Less than 30% of teachers feel valued by policymakers. Yet they're on the frontlines of a global shortage of 50 million teachers.
Teachers know what works. It's time governments listen.
New #TALIS2024 shows we must place educators at the heart of education policy.

🗨️The hardships they endure working with such dignity and commitment under occupation are a lesson for us all. I wanted to honor them and those we have lost in Gaza, but no words suffice for such a massive failure of humanity. Sometimes we just have to show up for each other.
