A virtual convening with hands-on workshops on policies and innovations for education equity.

The USC Rossier School of Education and WISE offered a two-day joint event on 17 and 18 November 2020. This online gathering of educators and educational leaders examined global education policy responses to the pandemic and emergent solutions stemming from innovative policy solutions, pedagogy, and use of technology. Insights from global thought leaders focused on equity amidst disruption framed a range of highly interactive workshops fostering dialogue amongst participants.

Under the theme Moving Forward: Rebuilding a More Just and Equitable Educational Future, keynote speeches and workshops thought deeply and creatively about changes that are needed to help education systems emerge from the crisis stronger than before. Current disruptions are exacerbating long standing inequities. This calls for new policies and practices that can increase access and outcomes for all. The current turmoil is also revealing new insights and possibilities about how education might operate differently. This opens the door for bold and innovative ideas about ways to improve the educational experience of every student. The purpose of this event was to assemble a global gathering to think about these ideas together and develop strategies to advance the vision of a more equitable educational future.
