Looking forward to moderating a panel of Vassar College college professors today with Ulster BOCES! We cannot solve the #climatecrisis without the leadership of young people. Giving them an opportunity to express their ideas and lead change will be key to making real progress.

It's been an action-packed day at the Climate Summit. Students dove into topics relating to the #climatecrisis - migration, gender, oceans, energy - and designed solutions based on the perspectives of proximate stakeholders. Thank you to Ulster BOCES and Vassar College college!

Thanks, @AnnaleisCorbin, #LearningUnboxed, and the @PastFoundation, for having @KKNeimann and me on your show! We had a great conversation about what it means to be a #globalcitizen and elevate skills, relevancy, and student voice. Check out the episode - bit.ly/3AKir3C

In a rapidly changing world, the ability to be engaged citizens and collaborative problem solvers who are ready for the #workforce is essential. Ready to discuss how we get there TOMORROW with @TomFriedman, Hamse Warfa, and William Gaudelli of @lehighedu! #FutureReadySchools

“Schools have always been designed to make kids a certain way, rather than meet kids where they are, recognize the sanctity of the individual, and help them grow and develop into a full, unique human being.” - William Gaudelli

“The environments that thrive when the climate changes have complex and adaptive networks. A complex, adaptive coalition has no left and no right. It must be made from the center out. Everyone working together is the only way it’s going to work.” - Thomas L. Friedman #AdaptiveLearning

“All great change has been made by optimists, and I’m an optimist.” - Hamse Warfa We must imagine an education system that prepares young people to thrive in the most diverse, interconnected world we’ve ever seen before. #21stCenturySkills #FutureReadySchools

Can't wait for this event! It combines my love for Green Card Voices + the incredible work they do elevating immigrant and refugee voices, AND, Zaynab, who I've know for years + marveled at her persistence, resilience and brilliance (a fellow Columbia | SIPA grad, too!) Join us!
