Past Program

The COVID-19 pandemic opened a remarkable window of opportunity for transforming education systems. Recognizing the gap between what we have versus what we need, an unparalleled public education sector and political momentum behind education transformation has emerged. A key theme within this movement is intergenerational collaboration and leadership. 

These key shifts – away from incremental improvement to reform, and towards new power dynamics within and across education systems – are new territory and require space for learning, connection and action. 

Our first virtual meeting after the convening in May will focus on providing feedback and finalizing our next steps. This meeting is a crucial milestone in our collective effort to make progress and achieve our shared goals. 

Over the course of four years, this initiative will bring together diverse leaders to deepen the global dialogue and accelerate action to transform education, with a specific focus on understanding and enabling intergenerational leadership and collaboration. The 2023 convening is designed to lay the groundwork for the following three years – seizing the momentum and shaping the transformation agenda in 2023 and beyond.
