Partnerships and Joint Initiatives Forum
Collaboration and co-creation are important keywords for this event. We want this Leadership Summit to be not only an engaging moment throughout the time in Geneva, but also beyond. Participants will, for instance, have the opportunity to join the Partnerships and Joint Initiatives Forum, focusing on sharing project ideas in selected topical fields:
– AI, emerging technologies and the transformation of learning;
– AI development, diversity of knowledges and solution-oriented innovation; and
– Emerging technologies and models for ethical leadership in education
Engagement and Call for Action
Your voice counts! The theme of this year’s ICDE Leadership Summit is a topic of far-reaching impact for the way humans will live together, care for the planet, and think about and organise education. Participants will be invited to directly contribute their views on the Summit themes. An interactive process will be proposed to gather recommendations, additional questions, and elements for guidelines relevant for the debates to be conducted after the Summit on leadership and education in the age of AI, both globally and in the regions. Contributions from the whole attendance will be gathered and captured in the Summit report.
