The most vital infrastructure is not made of steel or stone
In short: Former Tunisian government minister Amel Karboul argues that we prioritize visible physical construction over the invisible foundation of human potential. This talk explores how to shift global investment toward educating every child within a single generation.
Karboul highlights a systemic imbalance in how nations invest in their futures. While governments frequently pour resources into tangible projects like roads and bridges, she contends that educated minds are the most critical infrastructure for long-term progress.
Her presentation offers actionable strategies to ensure that children are not just physically present in classrooms, but are actually achieving meaningful learning. The goal is a generational shift that prioritizes cognitive development as the primary driver of a brighter future.
