Targets for 2015 must be set so no one is left behind due to lack of resources
After 2015, financing targets should be set for
countries to allocate:
 at least 6% of GNP on education; only 41 had
reached this level by 2011
 at least 20% of their budget on education; only 25
had reached this level by 2011
Financing targets should also apply to aid donors so
that all funders are held to account for their promises.
