About
The Varkey Foundation launched the Global Teacher Prize to shine a spotlight on the important role teachers play in society. After all, It is teachers that shape our future through the children they teach.
But this future remains uncertain. The Year 2020 marks the beginning of a “decade of delivery” in education – with ten years left to meet the sustainable development goal of promising every child a good education by 2030.
We don’t believe education debates are the preserve of academics; you deserve to be part of them too.
By caring and talking about education, you play your part in helping with our shared mission: doing whatever it takes to give teachers the respect they are owed and helping every child get their birthright: a great education.
