In each episode of the Inside Our MIND podcast, we take a look at issues and challenges facing education that we are working to address through research, technology and strategic initiatives.
In our latest episode, Brian welcomes MIND’s EVP and Executive Director of Social Impact Karin Wu back to the show, to reflect on the past thirteen months through a social impact lens. They discuss how our partners worked with and inspired us to meet the moment of school closures, and leverage our collective assets to support students, schools and families. They also talk about how the trauma of the pandemic, school closures, and racial and social injustice have increased awareness of long-standing issues in our education system, and created a window of opportunity for true foundational change to occur.
Topics Covered in the Podcast:
2:15 - From the Week that Changed Everything to Now
4:30 - Time and Assets
7:15 - Meeting the Moment of COVID-19 School Closures
