The Global Business Coalition for Education

The Global Business Coalition for Education, an initiative of Theirworld, is a global movement of businesses which aims to unleash the potential of the next generation. We believe that every child deserves the best start in life, a safe school to learn in, and skills for the future. 

Tackling the global education crisis takes the collective power of business and other stakeholders – and know-how to bring these voices together for positive change. The Global Business Coalition for Education serves as the business community’s social impact advisor, combining the expertise of education and business to develop customized programs and identify investments, partnerships, and opportunities that will have the greatest impact.

GBC-Education members are ‘Next Generation Actionists’ who understand the power and potential of leveraging their knowledge, resources, and scale in coordination with peers, government, international organizations, and NGOs. We believe transformative change requires more than individual efforts to address a problem – no matter how large or significant the effort.
