Global Education Lab: working together to enhance children’s opportunities

The Global Education Lab flagship at UGlobe partners with societal partners from around the world to address inequalities in education globally. Four sub-projects provide an update on their activities. In September 2022, the United Nations organized the Transforming Education Summit. Following the summit, the Secretary-General on Transforming Education issued a Vision Statement , calling Transforming Education 'An urgent political imperative for our collective future'. The Centre for Global Challenges, in collaboration with the Utrecht University strategic theme  Dynamics of Youth , is working together with education organisations from around the world to respond to this call for action. Specifically, UGlobe facilitates the Global Learning Community (GLC) on Whole Child Development. The GLC brings together 80 education organisations from around the world, from grassroots to international organisations. Through a series of interactive convenings over the past 1,5 year, the learning community has built the basis for connectivity and mutual learning.
