Abstract: Introduction: Five years into the 2030 Agenda, education in Latin America continues to face persistent inequalities in access, quality, and equity. Objective: Analyze the progress and challenges in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda in the education system, considering the impact of the adopted policies, the resources invested, and the obstacles that have hindered sustained progress. Methods: The study was based on a documentary review, analyzing academic and documentary sources categorized into access, equity, financing, and digitalization to compare trends and educational policies. Results: The findings show progress in coverage and digitalization, but inequalities in educational equity, financing, and infrastructure persist. The digital divide and lack of teacher training continue to affect educational quality. Conclusions: Despite advancements in digitalization and coverage, persistent inequalities limit educational transformation. Without sustained investment and equitable strategies, Latin America will not fully achieve SDG 4 by 2030.
