Project-Based Learning: a lever for the future of nations and International Geneva

In the global economic competition, countries that adopt Project-Based Learning (PBL) gain a decisive lead in education, innovation and competitiveness. Those that remain anchored in the industrial model inexorably fall behind.

This workshop will highlight PBL as an efficient and effective solution to achieve the objectives of teaching and education, to secure the success of nations, and to train the talents capable of meeting tomorrow’s challenges.

It will also explore PBL as a powerful cross-cutting project channel for International Geneva, offering a mobilizing framework that attracts and unites major fortunes, philanthropists and impact investment funds in search of truly transformative projects with strong systemic reach.

Project-Based Learning is not only an educational method, but also a strategic lever for economic and diplomatic futures, serving high-impact projects.

Discussions among stakeholders in this meeting take place both in the form of a Round Table with the speakers and as breakout group debates involving the Assembly audience.

Geneva - Thursday, December 11, 2025, Afternoon
