Washington DC - “Rochelle Prasad: Education Rights and Youth Engagement Activist, Author, and Teacher to open World Bank Spring Meetings Side event: Act For Early Years: Unlocking Investment for Our Youngest Learners” ..what a dream. Last week I was honoured to be the opening speaker at one of the WorldBank Spring Meetings Side event: Act For Early Years: Unlocking Investment for Our Youngest Learners My message to our global leaders: our students look up to us every single day with hope and admiration for their futures - we need to include educators and youth in your decision making processes. Make space on your boards and invest in youth leadership positions. If you want to build a sustainable future in education for all, depend on and call in youth/educators to join the decision making processes today.
