About this listen
"Ultimately, I found that the real impact comes from creating a new education system and a new model of schooling,” says Raya Bidshahri, global education thought leader and founder of the award-winning School of Humanity, on creating an educational model that addresses the global challenges we face today.
In this episode, SIG Learning Series Programme Head Karishma Bhansali Mehta talks to award-winning educator, BBC Top 100 Women of the Year honoree, and global thought leader Raya Bidshahri about her innovative alternative education model, the School of Humanity. The School of Humanity is a high school that operates on a project-based learning model, without traditional exams and subjects, where children learn by tackling real-world problems that impact our society today.
Raya discusses the urgent need to revamp and restructure education to build schools that equip younger generations to address the challenges of today, such as climate change and sustainability. She highlights the importance of teaching modern-day skills, including systems thinking, AI ethics, spirituality, and mindfulness, in our AI-driven digital world, which is facing an acute climate crisis.
