Doha: Education Above All (EAA) Foundation showcased the innovative strategies that have led to increase access to education for some of the hardest to reach children around the world as it meets with other winners of the prestigious WISE Awards, yesterday.
EAA presented how new approaches to thinking is helping them reach millions of learners through strategies like their innovative financing, openly sourced tracking of attacks on education, as well as a bank of internet-free learning resources for those disadvantaged by the digital divide.
The discussion entitled ‘Innovate to Reshape Global Education Systems’ centred around ways former recipients of the WISE Award — as well as leading education experts — can exchange experiences. The event included a lively panel discussion, which delved deeper into where, how and why winning projects have succeeded. It will also look at how the risks of change can be mitigated or prevented.
Among the attendees were staff from Education Above All (EAA), winners of 2022 WISE award for Internet Free Education Resource Bank (IFERB) and representatives from Qatar University’s Young Scientist Centre who won the award in 2015.
