When: April 23 (Pre-Conference), April 24-25 (Main Conference)
Where: American Community School of Abu Dhabi
Theme: Innovation for Purposeful Impact
We are in the early stages of planning an impactful experience, building on the success of past FOEN events hosted by the Western Academy of Beijing (WAB). FOEN26 isn't a typical conference; it's a global summit for educators who are serious about challenging norms and building the future of learning.
We believe technology, when guided by purpose, can be one of humanity's greatest forces for good. FOEN26 is where ideas transform into impact.
Your experience includes a diverse program featuring global voices and hands-on workshops in four unique strands: Constraint Encourages Creativity, Innovation Expands Opportunities, Empathy Creates Solutions, and Wellness Unlocks Potential.
We champion empowering students with voice, choice, and real-world connection to unlock their natural desire to improve the world around them.
It's time to put FOEN26 on your professional development calendar and budget!
