With a background in AI, Blockchain, and Big Data, Prabhash explains how UNICEF is driving global innovation to enhance the impact of social programmes and create scalable, equitable solutions for children and young people.  Tune in for an enlightening conversation about the future of education, the challenges we face, and the innovative solutions UNICEF is leading to shape a brighter tomorrow.   UNICEF does not endorse any brand, product or service.   Key Topics: 01:38 – Challenges and opportunities in education 06:48 – Inclusive education 13:07 – Innovation and digital learning 24.00 – UNICEF’s work with adolescents 28.47 – Adolescence as a life stage 34.35 – International Day of Education 40.07 – Education in Emergencies If you'd like to learn more about UNICEF, please visit the following links: General  https://www.unicef.org/education   Inclusion  https://www.unicef.org/education/inclusive-education   https://www.accessibletextbooksforall.org/  Education in Emergencies  https://www.unicef.org/education/emergencies   https://www.unicef.org/appeals   Innovation  https://www.unicef.org/innovation/learning-innovation-hub  https://www.learningpassport.org/  https://giga.global/  https://www.unicefventurefund.org/portfolio/bookbot  https://www.unicef.org/innocenti/media/1341/file/UNICEF-Global-Insight-policy-guidance-AI-children-2.0-2021.pdf  https://www.unicef.org/innovation/upshift  International Day of Education  https://www.unesco.org/en/days/education

  • Make it Mindful
    In today’s episode, I’m excited to share a conversation I had recently as a guest on Make it Mindful, a podcast that explores how to keep schools relevant hosted by Seth Fleischauer. Along with my fellow guest, Kayla Morehead, a researcher at Denver Public Schools, we dive into the role of metacognition in education and the work that Nord Anglia is doing to support the development of metacognitive skills in students. It was a great discussion, and I’m excited for you all to hear it.   Listen to other episodes of Make it Mindful here.
