Mr. Mitchell said, "NJ MED created this award to encourage nations to submit their education data to the UN. Unfortunately, less than 25% of nations currently report this crucial data. Without accurate data, it is impossible to monitor nations' economic and social development potential."

Mr. Mitchell emphasizes, "This award may be the most important international event to help children reach their full potential and encourage nations' growth. However, without accurate data, we will never solve the world's crime and poverty levels."
