Education
beyond borders: Re-imagining education in Haiti, Nepal, Egypt
Dr. Steve Sider, Faculty of Education
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 indicates: Ensure inclusive
and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for
all. How is inclusive and equitable quality education fostered in fragile and
developing contexts? The Educator and Leadership Institute (ELI) is a
Laurier-sponsored initiative to support teacher professional development in
Haiti, Nepal, Egypt and beyond. The Institute brings educators from Canada and
other countries together – both through face-to-face and technology-supported
methods – to foster the teaching abilities of the participants. Dr. Steve Sider
will provide an overview of ELI as well as an accompanying research study which
is documenting the transformative opportunity that ELI is providing.
