A Europe that shares a single market, a currency and common strategic ambitions cannot ignore the growing education gap.
Education is not just a national issue anymore. It is about Europe’s competitiveness, sovereignty and future. 🇪🇺
Europe does not need 27 identical education systems. It needs shared goals: strong reading and maths skills, scientific literacy, critical thinking and responsible use of AI.
Different systems, one ambition: prepare the next generation of Europeans for the same future. 🇪🇺
President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu, if Europe wants to compete with the US and China in AI, science and technology, can education remain almost entirely a national matter?
PISA 2025 is a warning.
Shouldn’t Europe build a true common education strategy? 🇪🇺📚

This summer, extreme heat killed over 35,000 people. Farmers lost harvests. Homes were destroyed. This is the cost of inaction.
