The education of the world’s children is an essential enterprise for any society. This session will examine and deepen our understanding of the vision and work of the mindfulness and social justice movements as they work to reshape education. Together, we will explore places of convergence and difference in our respective views of how educational systems change as we envision a common future for the education of the world’s children. Our dialogue will center around three key questions: Where are we now? Working together, where might we go in 10 to 15 years? What are the opportunities and challenges of working together to reshape education systems so that all learners are prepared to make a contribution to a globalized world?
