The seventh World Innovation Summit for Education will convene under the theme ?Investing for Impact: Quality Education for Sustainable and Inclusive Growth?.

The link between education and the economy will be one of the key focuses at WISE 2015. Global investment in education has contributed significantly to economic growth and poverty reduction. But stronger global action is needed to reinforce weak education systems, to open opportunities to new players, to develop a ?job-ready? talent pool amid persisting inequality and support wider economic progress. Thus, the road map is clear: Invest for Impact. Furthermore, WISE 2015 will be the first global education conference following the ratification of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

WISE 2015 Sessions and Plenaries will be designed around three main pillars:

• The UN Sustainable Development Goals
• Education and the economy
• Fostering innovation in education systems

Benefits:
