Edt convened its latest Global Dialogue event in January 2025, bringing together policymakers, educators and partners to explore key educational challenges, discuss learnings and best practices, and identify scalable, contextually relevant strategies for reform.

We explored the current key challenges and opportunities at three critical stages of the education lifecycle: early childhood education, school-age learning, and making transitions from school to further education or employment. We also focused on three pivotal accelerators of education transformation: technology in education, workforce professionalism, and leadership in education.

This report captures the content from the six keynote sessions and provides summaries of the facilitated focus group discussions, highlighting the key themes and recommendations for policymakers that emerged throughout the day.
