I had the great honor of attending the 2024 Yidan Prize Awards Ceremony in Hong Kong. It was truly inspiring to witness the incredible contributions being made in the field of education. A huge congratulations to this year’s winners:

Professor Wolfgang Lutz for his pioneering research that emphasizes the critical role of education in achieving sustainable development across the globe.

Professor Mark Jordans, Marwa Zahr, and Luke Stannard from War Child Alliance for their innovative work in providing education to children in conflict-affected regions through the "Can’t Wait to Learn" initiative.

Their work is a reminder that education has the power to change the world, and these individuals are leading the way in transforming lives through accessible and impactful learning opportunities.
