The Education & Society Program at The Aspen Institute hosts education's brightest leaders for the deepest, most intellectually rich, and forward-thinking conversations across education policy and practice. What we learn from these gatherings is then turned into action for urban school districts to make schools better and more equitable for students. Program alumni include Kaya Henderson, Paymon Rouhanifard, Janice Jackson, Tony Evers, and more. We have no agenda except to advance policies that are best for children and are united in our belief that every child deserves a high-quality education and to be equipped with the skills to pursue a meaningful life.
