Providing high quality, inclusive education for all, one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals for 2030, is vital for shaping a world that is more peaceful and prosperous than our world is today. Achieving this goal will rest upon strong local leaders who are empowered and supported to develop effective solutions, adopt and contextualize best practices from others, and continuously improve. Reflection on current investments in these areas reveals that there is an opportunity and a critical need to increase attention to these issues.
As we mark the two years since the SDGs were announced, join us for this event to learn lessons for global education from the global health sector and other examples, which show that local stakeholders can benefit immensely from a stronger and better coordinated set of global stakeholders, bringing together a world of knowledge, experience, and deep expertise for local benefit.
