The future is unknowable. Humans have always fallen short when predicting what the future would look like, and schools have always made children pay the price for misunderstanding both their nature and the changing nature of society.

This conference brings together global stakeholders, education experts, students and teachers— young and old—to discuss education.  Discussions will center on what education looks like now, and what it needs to become to help children learn to solve the problems of today, and to confront the problems of an unknowable future.
