Education needs to be relevant to all sectors, including health care, the environment and job creation.  Panelists in this session are asked to imagine what role education can play in creating the world we want to see, and how education can respond to changing needs in society.  Learners need to be ready to question what they learn, and to understanding knowledge as dynamic and evolving.

The debate is chaired by Reeta Roy (The MasterCard Foundation) with panelists Sir Fazle Hasan Abed (Chairman of BRAC and 2011 WISE Prize Laureate), Carole Bellamy (Chair of the Board of Directors of Global Partnership for Education) and Prof. Georges Haddad (Director of Education Research and Foresight (ED/ERF), UNESCO) joining the discussion.
