Experiential Learning
Teaching and Learning for 2030 (New)
Background of Co-organiser
Founded in 2014, EDiversity has been promoting choice and diversity in education based on our staunch belief in respecting children’s innate and diverse needs. Our strategy is to focus on empowering parents and teachers, so they can have the mindset and skills to build an empathetic, nurturing, and child-oriented environment at home and at school. We have been showcasing possibilities in education to push for rethinking and therefore a paradigm culture shift in education.
