Join Wendy Kopp, CEO of Teach For All and founder of Teach For America, and Jackie Bezos, president and co-founder of the Bezos Family Foundation, which invests in the science of learning and the experiences and environments that young people need to learn, for a deep dive on educational excellence on a global scale.
