Shaping the Global Dialogue
This interactive map showcases reflections from a growing global community exploring the shared learning question: “What will it take to equip students to shape a better future?”
These insights emerge from over 20 convenings across regions alongside global online dialogues—bringing together 2,500+ participants from over 40 countries.
These conversations bring together diverse perspectives from students, educators, system leaders, policymakers, researchers, and actors from civil society, business, and technology. Browse the insights and explore the connections.
Discussions have been hosted by members of the Reshaping Education Steering Group (RESG)—an informal, global community of education stakeholders working to reimagine the purpose of education—who have also curated these reflections.
Read a summary of the key insights here.
