The President of Latvia noted that education is the foundation of every person's values and beliefs. It opens up opportunities and new horizons, allows to create changes and shape the future. Therefore, everyone should have access to high-quality education regardless of his or her place of residence, income, or social status.
“High-quality education is the only path to a strong state and a strong, consolidated society in the future. Educational content must be adapted to tomorrow’s challenges. At the same time, ever changing modern world requires that each of us develops continuously, acquire new knowledge and new skills throughout our lives,” emphasised Raimonds Vējonis.
