This year’s Yidan Prize Awards Presentation Ceremony and Summit was successfully held virtually on 7 December. Our three laureates, Professor Carl Wieman, Lucy Lake and Angeline Murimirwa, received their awards from the officiating guest, The Honourable Mrs Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor, GBM, GBS, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

We were delighted to have our Board Director, HRH Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands, and former Australian Prime Minister Ms Julia Gillard as our keynote speakers at the Summit.

We also announced the establishment of the Yidan Council of Luminaries – a transformational force and support closer collaboration among the world’s most distinguished educational leaders, to amplify their collective voice and take practical action in educational policy and reform.
