A blueprint for reclaiming education


Developed by a coalition of educators, policymakers, and thought leaders, Manifesto 25 offers a blueprint for reclaiming education by dismantling outdated paradigms, fostering creativity, and addressing systemic inequities.
The manifesto challenges the status quo, asserting that education as we know it is failing to prepare learners for the complexity and uncertainty of our rapidly changing world.
It lays out 25 actionable principles designed to reimagine education as a dynamic force for equity, sustainability, and innovation.

Why Manifesto 25?

Building on the legacy of Manifesto 15, which sparked global conversations about learning futures, Manifesto 25 seeks to move beyond rhetoric to action. “Hope is not enough,” says John Moravec, lead contributor and author of Knowmad Society. “We must work collectively to create learning systems that empower every individual to thrive, innovate, and lead not only today but in a world beyond our imaginations.”

Key Themes of Manifesto 25:

  • Equity at the core: Education systems must dismantle barriers and amplify diverse voices to ensure every learner is genuinely seen, heard, and valued.
  • Learning without limits: Education should thrive in ecosystems, not boxes, blending formal and informal learning environments to foster lifelong curiosity and adaptability.
  • Harnessing the power of networks: Knowledge grows where the boundaries of networks intersect. Learners must be equipped with the skills to navigate these intersections and co-create solutions for global challenges.
  • A call to action: From students to policymakers, everyone is urged to take bold steps in reclaiming education and reimagining its role in shaping a sustainable and equitable future.
