Transforming Education Summit

Transforming Education Summit

The Global Peace Foundation Kenya, in partnership with the Ministry of Education, Standard Group PLC, World Vision Kenya, Oracle Academy, and other partners, organised the Transforming Education Summit on 27th July, 2022, at the BOMA Hotel, Nairobi. The Summit was an interactive platform that brought together stakeholders in education to discuss ways to improve the quality of education.

The Summit, which was a key initiative of Our Common Agenda launched by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, aimed to elevate education to the top of the global political agenda and mobilise action, ambition, solidarity, and solutions to recover pandemic-related learning losses and transform education in a rapidly changing world.

By incorporating ethics and workplace skills into secondary and tertiary education, the Summit offered guidance and support to educators as they transform education and develop the character, creativity, and leadership skills of both their students and themselves. The event was attended by eMobilis and panelists from KICD, Oracle, and UNESCO who discussed the role of NGOs as intermediaries in ensuring access to education, offering capacity building, training the workforce, and opening opportunities to the global market.
