The 2024 Youth Report on technology in education is the result of an extensive consultation process in partnership with Restless Development involving +1500 youth and students across 8 regions. The consultations invited participants to reflect on the key challenges and opportunities for the use of technology in education in their regions through the lenses of the recommendations in the global 2023 Global Education Monitoring Report on technology in education: Technology on our terms. The discussions centred on the need for the use of technology in education to be appropriate for national and local contexts and to be equitable and leave no one behind.

The report calls for decisions about technology in education to keep learners at the centre when deciding whether the use of technology in education would be appropriate, equitable, evidence-based, and sustainable.

Through this report, young people have described what technology on their terms would look like. It concludes with a call to action calling which highlights concrete recommendations that governments can follow to ensure that technology in education is on youth terms.
