Helping to improve the quality of education for everyone

About
About
The Education World Forum (EWF), held annually in London, is the largest conference for education and skills ministers in the world.
The event offers four days of insight and inspiration from leading education pioneers, policy makers and education experts, with many of the sessions given by education ministers themselves as part of an honest assessment of countries’ common issues and challenges.
EWF is convened by:
- Times Higher Education
- Department for Education (DfE)
- Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO)
- Department for Business and Trade (DBT)
- British Council
- And sponsored by EWF industry partners.
The British Council works closely with education ministries to support attendance and ensure ministers get the most out of the experience. We arrange policy briefings in advance and organise tailored programmes and meetings while delegations are in the UK. We also assist with follow-up work when delegations return to their own countries. Our bespoke service provides additional context and depth in specific areas and supports ministers to put policy into practice.
