The World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) was established by Qatar Foundation in 2009 under the patronage of its Chairperson, Her Highness Sheikha Moza bint Nasser. WISE is an international, multi-sectoral platform for creative thinking, debate and purposeful action in order to build the future of education through innovation. WISE is now an ongoing initiative and a global reference in new approaches to education. Through both the annual Summit and a range of continuing programs WISE is promoting collaboration and building the future of education.
This year more than 1200 prominent education, corporate, political and social leaders from over 100 countries took part in three days of debate, dialog and networking.
The theme of this year was Reinventing Education for Life, exploring how innovation can close the gap between education, learning and life.
