Nobel Prize Teacher Summit 2020

Migration and Movements

The Nobel Prize Teacher Summit 2020 was held on 9 October at the Nobel Prize Museum. The theme this year was how to address migration in education and how to give our students hope and the capacity to act for a sustainable future.

Since the summit was held during the Covid-19 pandemic, only 25 teachers were present at the museum while hundreds of teachers connected live online from over 30 different countries, including Guatemala, Iraq, Pakistan, USA, Eritrea and Finland.
