The greatest gratitude one can give for education is to contribute and strengthen a generation of teachers to give wisdom to another generation. If it is a contribution to a cause without a profit motive, its implications are immense. The international conference is a vessel that gathers new knowledge and opens new avenues to disseminate education in new directions. It is an international project showcase. Benefits will go to individuals, schools, communities, and countries.
It is a contribution to bring education to an unprecedented level, not only in one school or one village in one country, but in all countries in the world.
If you can contribute as a hosting partner, collaboration partner, sponsor, or in any way as a university, educational institution, school, or business entity, that investment will benefit you for centuries. We invite you to be part of the pre-conference activities and the physical conference. You can make academic contributions, infrastructure investments, and financial contributions.
In addition to the spiritual happiness of your contribution, you will also gain economic value.
