From the Margins to the Centre: Transforming Education Systems Where It Matters Most

23 Sep 2025, 13:00 - 14:30 EDT
General Assembly, Education House, Floor 14

Millions of children remain excluded from quality learning—those displaced, living in poverty, navigating conflict, or facing systemic discrimination. This session reframes these margins not as peripheral, but as the starting point for bold education system transformation. Drawing on proven, locally-driven models, we’ll explore how inclusive approaches grounded in children’s lived realities are not only effective but essential for reaching SDG4. The conversation will spotlight how innovations rooted in community leadership, flexible delivery, and contextual adaptation can transition from pilots to policies—embedding equity into national education systems. This is a call to collective action: to move from proof to practice, from dialogue to delivery, and to scale solutions that prioritize those who have been left furthest behind.
