Global learning, co-created with and for young people

By young people, for the world.

Aligned with’UN SDG 4, Our international programs guarantee quality education that is accessible to all, global, sustainable and co-constructed.

In line with Pact for the Future, We work together with young people to design our training programs so that we can meet their challenges, today and tomorrow.

Our mission: strong 20 years of expertise, to train local agents of change with a global vision of the issues at stake.

Transforming education policy

Beyond action on the ground, we work towards a systemic transformation of global education.
As a UNESCO Category 2 Institute and the first French hub of the United Nations University, we act as a unique interface between research, pedagogical innovation and public policy.

Our aim: to enlighten our peers and decision-makers so that we can move from experimentation to global impact.

  • International advocacy

    Amplifying the voice of transformative education

    We actively advocate for transversal skills — such as cooperation, creativity and problem-solving — to be recognised on an equal footing with academic knowledge.
    We promote a vision of education as the primary lever for achieving all the Sustainable Development Goals.

  • Policy dialogue

    Supporting public decision-makers

    We work closely with French and international governments and institutions to co-construct bold public policies.
    We create neutral spaces for dialogue to facilitate the adoption of sustainable and inclusive educational reforms.

Support from the United Nations

Our partnerships with UNESCO and the United Nations University confirm our ability to collaborate, our legitimacy and our international visibility.

Over 500 international partners

A long-standing partner of our international activities since 2019.

We are an open coalition of over 500 partners worldwide — including schools, universities, youth movements, NGOs, social entrepreneurs, research centres.

By connecting grassroots actors with national and international institutions, we strengthen our collective impact on education.
