What education do we need in times of systemic crisis?

22 Sep 2026, 12:30 - 14:00 EDT
Flatbush, Floor 11, Education House (access via Floor 12)
UNGA 81

Building on perspectives from youth activism and non-formal learning, we ask: what kind of education can help not only understand the crisis, but also challenge the systems and power structures that sustain it?

Event Description

In many spaces, education remains framed as technical, politically neutral, and narrowly focused on awareness-raising, without fully engaging with capitalism, power, and the structural roots of the systemic crisis. Inviting participants to critically reflect on who current forms of “education for” are really serving, we want to move towards integrated, justice-oriented approaches.

Speakers:
Melina Sakiyama & Christian Schwarzer GYBN co-funders, Daniela Arredondo Munguía, GYBN member and Rizoma Initiative co-creator
