Thoughtfully engaging with the future can unlock the creative and innovative leadership capacity we need to solve the problems of tomorrow. If we hope to create a more equitable, joyful, and personalized future of learning, we must look beyond the current moment, even as current needs feel pressing.

Join in a conversation with Dr. Duchess Harris and EdFunders' Dr. Ulcca Joshi Hansen, who will help leaders and innovators consider the past and future context and learn to take the long view of education transformation.

Co-hosted by KnowledgeWorks, St. Thomas University, the Minnesota School Board Association (MSBA), Grantmakers for Education and the Association of Metropolitan School Districts (AMSD).

The event will be held in person at the Quora Education Center in Little Canada, Minnesota and online via Zoom.
