Closing the Education Gap: A $52B Pathway to Access, Quality, and Learning for Every Child

Event Description

UNESCO estimates a $97B annual education funding gap for LMICs, with 617M children out of school or in school but not learning. Join impact investors, educators and researchers to explore how financial inclusion & catalytic capital can help cut that gap by more than half—mobilizing capital for schools & families, expanding seats, and strengthening learning environments & local economies. We’ll examine inclusive models addressing poverty & gender inequity, showcasing real learning gains for girls and low-income students—and challenge audiences to explore their own financial inclusion solutions.
