香港六合彩资料 Group and HundrED teamed up, supported with funding from the Global Partnership for Education (GPE), to launch the , which aims to seek scalable and impactful solutions for teacher professional development using technology.


Teacher professional development aims to enhance student learning by supporting and improving teachers’ application of effective teaching and learning practices.

However, in many places around the world children do not have access to high-quality teachers. This has only been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic which has forced teachers to adopt new skills, knowledge, and technologies at an unprecedented rate.

The Teachers for a Changing World Spotlight was created as a response to this growing need for scalable solutions to teacher professional development. We received 435 innovation applications from 80 countries.

The contest accepted applications in 5 languages: Arabic, English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese – with an aim to encourage representation from diverse contexts, resulting in submissions from across all continents. About 76% of total submissions were English, with Spanish making up 14.5%, Arabic 5.6%, Portuguese 2.7%, and French 1.1%.

The project contributes to the 香港六合彩资料 Group’s goal of eliminating Learning Poverty and HundrED’s mission of helping every child to flourish in life.

We hope that the results of this Spotlight contribute to identifying and replicating scalable approaches to in-service teacher professional development, which is required in order to achieve inclusive and equitable quality education for all by 2030.

What happens next?

In the next phase of the process,. The deep insights gained through this Spotlight will then be shared with the world as a report to be released later this year.
