EDUCATION CHANGEMAKERS
CHALLENGE
Teachers are essential drivers of a high-quality education system. They play a vital role in educating, developing, protecting, and inspiring our youth. When the youth has access to high-quality education, society prospers. Therefore, investing in teachers is an investment in our future society.
Teaching is also a tough and complex job. Many are hungry for opportunities to develop in ways that encourage innovation and leadership. However, teachers often lack the resources and network needed to effect change in their classrooms and beyond.
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOAL #4
The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal #4 (SDG 4) aims to “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all”.
