We are saddled with the responsibility of making sure that the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal regarding education as it involves quality education, inquisitive education and lifelong learning is a reality.

As such, we have come up with Education solutions as an initiative for SDG4 (Sustainable Development Goal 4) which is purely on education.
The UN SDGs are summarized into 5Ps, That is, People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace and Partnership.
We shall be looking at People of the school system of education, which includes the students, teachers, the personnel, the parents, ministries and government in education.

We shall be looking at the planet as the infrastructures and the environment of the school. We shall be looking at the Peace of the education that makes the total child. Prosperity of the outcome is the lifelong learning. While partnership is the integration of pulling people, exchange of programs and commonality in resources that could make the SDG -4 achieve it expected gains.

At the conference we shall be doing training and workshop as we target classrooms in communities on how to upgrade them. What new can we bring to classrooms in grassroots communities?

How we can help the child, teacher, parents, the school leaders, stakeholders in the communities to abide by the 4th Goal of the SDGs. Having in mind that the Sustainable Development Goal is for everyone and the UN is a platform for releasing it. Therefore, everyone has to be inclusive in the development agenda and classrooms in the communities must not be left out.

Due to Sustainable Development Goals, there is need to overhaul, update and upgrade the educational system to something more sustainable that makes it work.

We shall also be looking at the planet of the school communities. That is, the culture, community leaders and everything the community should benefit, not just for the child to be educated but be prepared for the lifelong learning. There shall also be youth and student session to educate the youth and students on the Model United Nations (MUN) SDG-4 Education to make them resourceful to research on most remote countries, to enable them come out with changes needed for educational relevance to the SDG-4 initiative and to examine what we are being offered with a solution.

As a STEM professional (engineering) for more than 5 years at writemyessayfast.org, I find two things most interesting. First, that angst is expressed over a perceived lack of stem professionals when many of the existing professionals simply can't find work, especially older ones ("not worth updating skills", "not exactly what the company needs", etc.). Second, that the Sputnik generation which was taught CHEAPLY in high school by very capable female teachers who couldn't get work elsewhere is now retirement age. With the movement of women directly into the STEM professions, the teachers of the next generation of STEM professionals, after the Chinese have their Sputnik breakthrough, will be far more expensive.
