Millennium Fellowship Project: ReformEd Italy
ReformEd Italy is a grassroots initiative aimed at transforming the Italian high school education system. The project tackles the disconnect between current educational methods and students' real-world needs, aiming to create a system that does not prepare them only for academic exams but for a meaningful futures. By gathering student feedback and comparing it with international education systems, ReformEd Italy aims to create a more adaptive, modernized framework that addresses students' aspirations and societal needs. Ultimately, our mission is to empower students with a voice in shaping their education, bridging the gap between policy and experience.
