The education system has failed all of us. There is a huge disconnect between what we study and the real world.
(Masarat Daud, TEDxDubai 10.10.09)
Idea worth spreading:
One of the first female university graduates from her village in Rajasthan, Masarat wanted to bring education to the girls in her village using a method she calls “functional education”… So, she created the 8-Day Academy!
In exactly a week, she showed her first class (70 women who had never seen a computer) how to use computers, to speak in public, to be leaders... When she came back a few months later the women had computerized schools throughout the village, they were speaking across town and sharing their new found knowledge with others…
Call to action:
Create your own 8-Day Academy. All you need is 8 days to change the world!
