The UN Special Envoy for Global Education is on a mission to convince wealthy donors that investing in good teachers and classrooms is an investment in our collective future.

For this edition of our UN News podcast, the Lid Is On, we invited former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown to sit down with three young ambassadors from Kenya, Nepal and Guinea, for a lively conversation about the real difference that education dollars can make to peace, security, and sustainable growth across the world.
