BIG Questions Institute

Big Questions Institute at United Nations International School of Hanoi (UNIS Hanoi) leading the 3-day Governance as Leadership deep dive.

Since early 2020, the Big Questions Institute has run ten Mastermind cohorts for education leaders from around the world. Masterminds offer a safe, trusted, provocative space for honest discussions around personal and professional topics of participants’ choosing. In monthly virtual meetings, groups share problems, design solutions, and offer support to one another in ways that energize and grow capacity to lead into the future. The next cohort runs 1x month Sept 2024 - April 2025 at 7am US Eastern or 12 noon US Eastern. New for 2024-25: job alike cohorts for heads/directors, assistant/deputy heads, directors of teaching and learning, and division leads.

Excellent two-day workshop with Justine Finn from https://lnkd.in/e42UU6yJ just wrapped up. Session 2 was a bit smaller than Wednesday's, but so grateful to all the educators who took time to deepen understanding and learn new ways to lead and support the work to make schools safer and more equitable. #Bigquestionsinstitute #equity #safeschools #progress #belonging

Registration deadline fast approaching! Recently, middle and high school boys around the world have been targeted online by blatantly misogynistic messages and more covert sexism, affecting student attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors related to gender, identity, power, and relationships and compromising student and school safety, belonging, and equity. Justine Finn’s first workshop for us on this topic was amazing, helping dozens of schools to create strategies to prevent, respond, and resolve relationship and sexual violence, harassment, and misogyny and to champion gender equality within their schools, classrooms, and communities. Next week’s sessions will be amazing as well. If you’re seeing and sensing this growing problem in your school, please consider registering for this workshop before time runs out! Contact us for team discounts. https://lnkd.in/e_RbJ3JJ

We have compiled a list of norms to serve as a solid starting point for groups that feel the urgency to engage with the hard realities of this moment to be better able to guide their children more effectively into the future.

If you are headed to the Tri Conference in September in México City be sure to sign up for Homa and Will's presentations on how we shift the focus from a portrait of a graduate to a portrait of a good ancestor. #triconference2024 #goodancestor #learning #futuresthinking #CDMX Will Richardson Homa Sabet Tavangar BIG Questions Institute

In the words of one listener..."Wow, Homa nailed it!" So many great takeaways from this recent podcast with Future Learning Design @BigQuestionsInstitute #goodancestor #futurelearning #growth https://lnkd.in/eGVribTs

Educators around the world tell us they are alarmed by a growing gender divide they see in their middle and high school students, where half of students in grades 7-12 report experiencing sexual harassment. External forces are negatively influencing our boys to say these things openly, feeling justified. Coming together to learn, find shared strength, and renew energy is how we equip our teachers to address this in their classrooms. Administrators, think about who should be in this workshop. Who needs it and who do you need to be in it? Discounts available for school teams. #disruptingmisogyny #fightsexism #educationforhumanrights #relationshiftproject #bigquestions #Whereisthepower? #Areweconnected?
