Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting is GSF’s flagship event that brings together members of the GSF community and key partners, including government officials, policymakers, funders and researchers. The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to foster deep and meaningful connections within and outside the community, access new and relevant information that will broaden thinking, and collectively move the community further in our shared goals.
The next GSF Annual Meeting will be held from 6-8 February 2024 in Accra, Ghana. Registrations for the Annual Meeting will open shortly.
Communities of Practice
We co-design and deliver Communities of Practice (CoPs) aimed at strengthening organisational and leadership capacity for GSF’s community.
The CoPs focus on key levels that will strengthen organisations and schools and thereby improve educational access, equity, and quality for all children. The various sessions of the CoPs are curated to foster better South-South learning, provide practitioners with approaches, solutions and resources that they can adapt and use in their operating contexts, and to strengthen relationships and peer networks within the GSF community.
Currently, we are running a Community of Practice on Foundational Learning and will soon launch a CoP on Child Safeguarding. Previous CoPs have been on topics such as Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice, Succession Planning for CEOs and Secondary Education.
