G20 Education Roundtable, Buenos Aires

Education Must Serve People, Not Systems

A declaration from the sidelines of the G20: the global model of education is not failing because it lacks innovation — it is failing because it was designed to sustain institutions rather than develop people. This address advanced a call for reconstruction around three commitments: rigor that honors lived experience, lifelong learning that extends beyond the credential, and social impact measured not by institutional output but by the transformation of communities and nations.
