In recent years American schools and the scholars who study these schools have become focused on bridging the achievement gap. The scholarly literature is most often focused on the discrepancy in achievement in one school, a region, or perhaps one nation. The literature examining the best practices of schools that have bridged this gap occasionally recounts successful strategies; however, the discussion regarding the achievement gap has been nearly silent regarding international law and the obligations all governments have to remove learning inequalities. In addition, the literature rarely discusses the importance of international collaboration. This article introduces all of these topics, with the purpose of encouraging global collaboration between educational leaders and scholars to meet the challenge of providing all children an equitable education in order to close the Global Achievement Gap.
