The Future of Smart

The Future of Educational Transformation

Episode Summary

Imagine an education system built around the concept of human flourishing. How would that push us to broaden our definitions of success and allow us to build on the assets and strengths of young people? Join us for conversation with Kenji Treanor, Vice President of Strategy, Partnerships and Learning at the Stuart Foundation about the role philanthropy can play as an enabler of new educational policies and approaches that move us in this direction.

Episode Notes

Our guest today is Kenji Treanor, Vice President of Strategy, Partnerships at the Stuart Foundation and a leader deeply deeply committed to building contexts in which young people can thrive. Kenji shares with us his personal journey into philanthropy, his thoughts on human flourishing, the role of philanthropy as an enabler rather than a driver of new educational policies and approaches, and how we invite people into conversations about what we might build together in service of young people.
