Charles Fadel is the founder and chairman of the Center for
Curriculum Redesign, an institution focused on making education more relevant and answering the question: “What should we learn in the 21st century?”
Charles is also a respected thought leader and author in the global education
space who works with several teams at the OECD and he’s also co-authored the
