Transform education

20 years serving global education

With over 20 years of expertise in educational innovation and pedagogical research, we are transforming learning and training at every stage of life — so they can meet today’s and tomorrow’s planetary challenges.

20 years of expertise

We are working to bring about a systemic transformation of global education by linking research, educational innovation and policy-making, so as to move from experimentation to global impact.

    Producing tomorrow's knowledge

    We mobilize collective intelligence and interdisciplinary research to anticipate educational challenges, through reference publications that provide evidence and innovative frameworks for rethinking learning.

  • International advocacy

    Amplifying the voice of transformative education

    We advocate recognition of cross-disciplinary skills (cooperation, creativity, problem-solving) and education as a lever for all the SDGs.

  • Policy dialogue

    Supporting public decision-makers

    We collaborate with governments and institutions to co-construct bold public policies, creating neutral spaces for dialogue on sustainable and inclusive educational reforms.

Our Lab International & Outreach

Our approach is recognised and supported by UNESCO and the United Nations University, ensuring the academic quality and real-world relevance of our programmes in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

If we are to be able to offer a present and a future that work for everyone, meaningful involvement of young people must become the norm rather than the exception (...) It's not enough to listen to them, we must involve them fully in local, national and international decision-making.

António Guterres
Secretary-General of the United Nations

The future will be co-created with young people: they are incubators of solutions!

Stefania Giannini
Assistant Director-General for Education at UNESCO & Administrator of the Learning Planet Institute

We do not want to train learners to be the best IN the world, but FOR the world and empower them to become citizens of the planet.

François Taddei
Founder & President of the Learning Planet Institute

The Institute allowed me to develop my personality, almost without realising it. The confidence that was instilled in me worked like silent magic. I was given opportunities, not just any opportunities: the best opportunities, to reveal what was inside me. I would like to thank all those who have accompanied me. What you do goes beyond the “simple” perimeter of teaching: you shape personalities, you reveal potential... Thank you so much for your trust...

Our causes

Because you can't work on climate change without democracy, or build peace without mental health, we advocate a systemic approach.
