Early years care and education

Early years care and education

Science shows that the early years are the start of long-term learning, health, and well-being. Up to 90% of a child’s brain development takes place between birth and the age of 5. That development rate is never matched again in a person’s life.

ESG and social impact

ESG and social impact

How the business community channels its resources, and how the education sector works with the business community, play a key role in determining not only the future of education but of the entire Sustainable Development Goals agenda.

Youth skills development

By 2030 half of all young people will not have the basic skills necessary for the workforce. GBC-Education tackles the future skills shortage by harnessing the innovation and creativity of youth and industry leaders.

Humanitarian relief
