In classrooms throughout the world, dedicated and principled teachers ([link removed]) are helping to cultivate thoughtful, empathetic, and self-confident citizens. All too often, teachers are doing this in the face of government-backed censorship—and even violence—on the one hand, and declining wages on the other. Because we know that supporting teachers today helps secure democratic and open societies ([link removed]) for tomorrow, Open Society is committed to not only supporting educators ([link removed]) , but working to make sure that the
environment outside the classroom respects and honors their essential contributions.
