The focus speaks to the need for green skills and transformative leadership skills, which I think is what the educational systems in Africa need amongst others. The need for access to education, without financial constraints cannot be over emphasized. The Africa we have today is doing well however I believe we can do more.

Education and Knowledge are the key Pillar's of building success.👌🏼

The end of World War I on November 11, 1918, marked a significant turning point in global history. As nations emerged from the shadows of conflict, they faced the colossal task of rebuilding societies ravaged by years of warfare. One of the critical areas recognized for fostering long-term peace and stability was education. As a result, many countries initiated substantial educational reforms aimed at promoting understanding, tolerance, and cooperation among future generations. In the aftermath of the war, the League of Nations, the precursor to the United Nations, was established with a mission to maintain world peace. Education was seen as a vital tool in achieving this goal. The League's Committee on Intellectual Cooperation, which included influential figures like Marie Curie and Albert Einstein, advocated for educational reforms that emphasized international cooperation and understanding. In Europe, countries like Germany and France reformed their education systems to incorporate curricula that focused on peace education and international cooperation. In Germany, the Weimar Republic introduced significant educational reforms, emphasizing democratic values and critical thinking to foster a new generation that would be less susceptible to militaristic ideologies. Across the Atlantic, the United States also recognized the importance of education in post-war reconstruction. The country saw a progressive movement in education, marked by the establishment of public junior colleges and increased access to higher education. These reforms aimed to equip citizens with the knowledge and skills necessary for participating in a democratic society and a rapidly changing world. Furthermore, the British education system underwent significant changes with the Education Act of 1918, also known as the Fisher Act. This legislation raised the school leaving age and expanded educational opportunities, laying the groundwork for a more inclusive system that could cater to the needs of a post-war society. Globally, the focus on education as a means of fostering peace and development led to the founding of various international educational organizations. These entities aimed to bridge cultural and national divides and promote a more cohesive and peaceful world community. In conclusion, the educational reforms initiated in the wake of World War I were instrumental in shaping modern education systems worldwide. By prioritizing education as a pathway to peace and reconstruction, nations laid the foundations for a more informed, tolerant, and cooperative global society. These reforms highlighted the transformative power of education in healing the wounds of war and building a sustainable future. #milestonesinhistory #educationhistory #WorldWarILegacy #PeaceThroughEducation #GlobalReforms #LeagueOfNations #ProgressiveEducation #PostWarReconstruction

The East African Students to Teachers (EAST) Program started in the early 2000s when community leaders saw a need for their children to be taught by teachers who could relate to them. In 2023, EAST became Thrive, expanding the services to all BIPOC students in the education department.
