Join Professor Asim Ijaz Khwaja, Director at the Harvard Center for International Development, for an insightful 1.5-hour panel discussion hosted by Teach For All Senior Director, Alex Beard, in partnership with UniCredit Foundation. This dynamic conversation will explore the broader ecosystem surrounding schools and communities, examining the many interwoven factors that shape learning outcomes in different contexts.

Shifting from a siloed view of education challenges to a holistic, community-driven approach, Professor Khwaja will discuss alongside and a panel of experts will discuss, how we can develop more coherent and aligned solutions by engaging and empowering the right community stakeholders—from families and educators to local governments and community organizations. Through cutting-edge research and real-world examples, the panel will delve into pressing questions: How do we effectively identify and address systemic frictions preventing stakeholders from fully supporting children's education? What role does collective action and leadership play in driving systemic change? How can we foster stronger collaboration across sectors to create lasting impact?
