Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Joins 10th Annual ASU GSV
At ASU GSV April 8-10, CZI will highlight its efforts to leverage technology, community-driven solutions, and collaboration to accelerate progress in education, science, and criminal justice reform.
Today, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative announced its participation in the 10th annual ASU GSV Summit, sharing a series of experiences on our efforts aimed at equipping those on the frontlines — teachers, advocates, scientists — with the necessary research and tools to accelerate progress towards a more inclusive, just, and healthy future for everyone. CZI leaders in education, technology, and impact investing will share the ways we are working to help ensure that every student receives an education tailored to their individual needs and supportive of every aspect of their development. In a keynote address, CZI Co-Founder and Co-CEO Priscilla Chan will share CZI’s vision for its Education work — and how that approach was in part shaped by her personal experience as a pediatrician and teacher.
