Joined August 2013
Education is a long-term investment in individuals, societies and economies. Without it, people lack the skills to transform investments in social sectors into real and sustainable impact.
"Education is foundational to any other investment". At the Futures Festival, @GPECEO explains why funding education matters to give people the skills they need to transform other investments into impact. #FundEducation

By investing in school feeding programs, countries invest in better learning outcomes, health and well-being, a strong local agriculture and climate resilience. The benefits of school nutrition programs go beyond education and build valuable human capital. #FundEducation.

I am devastated by the tragic crash at Milestone School and College in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Schools should be safe places for children to learn and thrive — not scenes of tragedy. My thoughts are with the families affected by this unimaginable loss.

The F-7 BGI training jet crashed in the capital Dhaka on Monday after experiencing a technical problem shortly after take-off, a military spokesperson said.

I am deeply saddened by new reports of attacks on children and education in #Ukraine, damaging education facilities across four cities, leaving one child dead and 10 injured. This is unacceptable. Every attack on education is an attack on children's futures.
Another devastating few days for children in #Ukraine. According to reports, 1 child reportedly killed and 10 injured in Kharkiv & Zaporizhzhia regions. Education facilities also reportedly damaged in Mykolaiv, Kryvyi Rih, Nikopol & Zaporizhzhia. Protect children from attacks!
