Education is a human right. Yes, more institutional leaders across the globe are committing to providing equitable education to their students. Yet in our work, we’re seeing that real gaps still remain. Many students simply don't feel comfortable coming forward to report their needs. We’re spotlighting this in honor of International Day of Education today to help spark change.

Video description: Infographics showcase the following statistics -1 in 5 undergraduate students have a disability. Only 37% of them report their needs to the university.
