Overview:
We have worked with Global Schools Forum since 2016 to deliver their now biennial members meetings, attended by senior global education practitioners and funders, as well as local and national ministers and dignitaries. The three-day event includes two days of workshops and presentations, as well as a full-day visiting regional school partners. This year’s event was sponsored by the BHP Foundation.

How we work together: With a global team, our work with the Global Schools Forum has always been remote. We begin work on projects 3-6 months out from the event, project managing the multi-day conferences, working closely with content and comms leads at the organisation. The Coveted project manager will lead on all logistical elements, including venue search and liaison, as well as management of all suppliers including production, designers, printers and decor. Additional support is provided by the Coveted administrator, who manages guestlist and communication, including management of travel and visas and collation of guest details and biographies.

How the Global Schools Forum is making a difference: Global Schools Forum is a collaborative community, innovation accelerator, and partnership builder for non-state organisations working to improve education at scale for underserved children in low- and middle-income countries. Learning partners include HundrED, Global Schools Leaders and Schools 2030, with funders including AKO Foundation, BHP Foundation, Jacobs Foundation and UBS Optimus Foundation.

We are thrilled to be working with Global Schools Forum again. Get in touch if you’re planning a conference or summit and would like to discuss your plans.
