01. Introduction

The International Conference on Quality Education 2026 (2nd Edition) will take place from February 16th – 19th, 2026 in , New Delhi, India. The event will bring together global leaders in education, school owners, principals, educators, teachers, and distinguished VIPs from various countries.

The primary objective of this conference is to “enhance the quality of early childhood, primary, and secondary education by empowering STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship skills, green education, and mindfulness to build multi-talented global citizens with 21st-century skills and spiritual well-being.”

Key themes of the conference will include: Curriculum development, Teaching-learning methodologies (pedagogical approaches), Technological Transformation in Education, Assessment and evaluation systems, Capacity building for educators, Leadership and school management, Special education, green education, Quality standards in education, Research and innovation in education, Corporate social responsibility (CSR) in education. These topics are pivotal for the rapid development of skills necessary for the 21st century, as well as for nurturing the spiritual well-being of children.

In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) global environment, individuals must equip themselves with the skills needed to navigate these challenges. The conference will highlight strategies for fostering essential 21st-century skills and supporting the spiritual well-being of children, helping them thrive in a competitive global society.

The conference is not merely a one-time event; it represents an ongoing commitment to improving the quality of education.

A series of pre-conference activities—including live interviews, discussions, presentations, and an online lecture series—will be conducted by delegates and selected experts in the lead-up to the event. These activities will cover key themes of the conference, as well as areas such as STREAM education, employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness.

Educators are encouraged to actively participate in these pre-conference sessions.
Participants in the pre-conference activities will be honored with special awards.

The physical conference will be held from February 16th till 19th, 2025 in , New Delhi, India

02. Problem Statement

  • The global knowledge landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by significant scientific and technological advancements. In response, children must develop multidisciplinary skills to navigate the challenges of an increasingly complex global society. However, the current education system faces significant challenges in effectively addressing the needs of this dynamic environment.

  • To bridge the gap between the current state of learning outcomes and the demands of the future, substantial reforms are required to ensure the highest standards of quality, equity, and integrity within the educational system—from early childhood care and education to higher education. The lack of collaboration and international forums among countries significantly hinders the implementation of these necessary reforms.

  • The STREAM education approach, designed to equip children with 21st-century skills and prepare them for a rapidly changing world, has not been effectively implemented in many classrooms. Curricula, teaching methodologies, and assessment and evaluation systems in schools have not been upgraded at the pace required to align with STEAM principles and evolving global demands.

  • Moreover, there is an urgent need to enhance teacher empowerment and capacity-building mechanisms for educators and educational leaders to better meet the needs of a rapidly evolving society. The lack of motivation among educators for research and innovation limits the development of new strategies and solutions to address existing challenges and improve the quality of education.

  • Additionally, there is a dearth of international platforms where educators can share best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas aimed at improving the quality of education. The valuable contributions of educators and the excellence demonstrated by schools are not adequately recognized or evaluated on global platforms.

03. Vision:

“Enhance the quality of early childhood, primary, and secondary education by empowering STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship skills, green education, and mindfulness to build multi-talented global citizens with 21st-century skills and spiritual well-being.”

04. Mission:

Our mission is to empower all educational stakeholders to equip children with the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving world, fostering their 21st-century competencies, spiritual well-being, and the long-term sustainability of individuals, nations, and the global society. We are committed to establishing strong international platforms and networks that elevate the quality of education by promoting STREAM education, employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness. Through these collaborative efforts, we recognize and honour excellence in performance and service while promoting knowledge sharing to continuously uplift the standards of global education.”

05. Objectives:

  • To establish international platforms and networks that empower educators—including teachers, principals, and educational leaders—in implementing STREAM education.

  • To create international platforms and networks for exchanging best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas to promote STREAM education within the school system.

  • To create international platforms and networks for the capacity development of teachers and educators in the following areas: early childhood and school curriculum development, teaching-learning methodologies (pedagogical approaches), assessment and evaluation systems, capacity building for educators, leadership and school management, special education, green education, quality standards in education, research and innovation in education, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) in education.

  • To develop international platforms and networks for sharing best practices in fostering employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness in schools, addressing the challenges of modern society.

  • To establish international platforms and networks for sharing best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas to equip children with 21st-century skills and promote their spiritual well-being. (Spiritual well-being is understood not as any particular religious or spiritual practice but as the overall quality of human existence.)

  • To recognize and honor the dedicated contributions of educators for their innovations, research findings, sharing of best practices, and unwavering commitment to quality education.

  • To acknowledge and celebrate the outstanding achievements of schools for their educational leadership, innovations, and contributions to advancing quality education.

06. Themes of the Conference

  • Curriculum Development: Enhancing school curricula by integrating STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness.

  • Innovative Teaching Practices: Advancing teaching methodologies and pedagogical approaches to foster critical thinking and creativity in STREAM-related disciplines.

  • Assessment and Evaluation: Strengthening assessment and evaluation systems to more effectively measure student outcomes in STREAM education, employability, and entrepreneurial competencies.

  • Teacher Capacity Building: Empowering educators through continuous professional development to effectively implement STREAM education and promote green and mindful practices.

  • Leadership and Management: Strengthening school leadership and management capabilities to support the adoption of STREAM education and related initiatives.

  • Quality Standards and Accreditation: Enhancing the quality and standards of educational institutions through the integration of STREAM education and innovative practices.

  • Research and Innovation: Promoting research and innovation to drive evidence-based practices in STREAM education, entrepreneurship, and sustainability.

  • Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Encouraging partnerships with corporate entities to implement CSR initiatives that support STREAM education and holistic student development.

  • Technological Transformation in Education

The conference is not merely a five-days event; it is an international initiative dedicated to enhancing the quality of education.

A comprehensive series of pre-conference activities has been scheduled, running from now until the conference’s conclusion. An international-level capacity development project is being implemented, allowing delegates to share best practices with thousands of educators across Sri Lanka and all over the world. 

Delegates can participate in these activities at their convenience, sharing innovative practices, research findings, and subject-matter expertise with education stakeholders worldwide. Pre-conference activities will include panel discussions, interactive sessions, workshops, live interviews, and presentations covering key areas such as curriculum development, pedagogical approaches, assessment and evaluation systems, teacher capacity building, educational leadership and management, quality standards, research, innovation, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). These sessions will be broadcast live on social media platforms, with recordings subsequently uploaded to YouTube and other educational websites for broader access.

These initiatives provide a platform for experts to contribute meaningfully to global education reform while earning international recognition and expanding their professional networks.

A special project has been implemented for the capacity development of educators in South Asian countries. https://www.iafqe.org/ipfcd/ If you are eligible to give presentations as a resource person, your registration fee will be refundable, and you will be invited as a special guest. “International Master Trainer on Quality Education”  awards will be granted based on your performance as a resource person.

01. Introduction

The International Conference on Quality Education 2026 will take place from May 18th – 23rd, 2026 in Colombo, Kandy, Badulla, in Sri Lanka. The event will bring together global leaders in education, school owners, principals, educators, teachers, and distinguished VIPs from various countries.

The primary objective of this conference is to “enhance the quality of early childhood, primary, and secondary education by empowering STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship skills, green education, and mindfulness to build multi-talented global citizens with 21st-century skills and spiritual well-being.”

Key themes of the conference will include: Curriculum development, Teaching-learning methodologies (pedagogical approaches), Technological Transformation in Education, Assessment and evaluation systems, Capacity building for educators, Leadership and school management, Special education, green education, Quality standards in education, Research and innovation in education, Corporate social responsibility (CSR) in education. These topics are pivotal for the rapid development of skills necessary for the 21st century, as well as for nurturing the spiritual well-being of children.

In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) global environment, individuals must equip themselves with the skills needed to navigate these challenges. The conference will highlight strategies for fostering essential 21st-century skills and supporting the spiritual well-being of children, helping them thrive in a competitive global society.

The conference is not merely a one-time event; it represents an ongoing commitment to improving the quality of education.

A series of pre-conference activities—including live interviews, discussions, presentations, and an online lecture series—will be conducted by delegates and selected experts in the lead-up to the event. These activities will cover key themes of the conference, as well as areas such as STREAM education, employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness.

Educators are encouraged to actively participate in these pre-conference sessions.
Participants in the pre-conference activities will be honored with special awards.

The physical conference will be held from May 18th till 23rd, 2026 in Colombo, Kandy, Badulla in Sri Lanka. 

The conference is organized by the International Association for Quality Education (IAFQE) with the Ministry of Education, Uva Province, Sri Lanka, in collaborative partnership with Dayananda Sagar University, Bengaluru, India; Vijaybhoomi University, Mumbai, India; the Pease Welfare Foundation; and C4Cynergy, Mumbai, India and Shikshalaya, Nepal.

At the physical conference, participants will have the opportunity to receive awards recognizing their excellence in performance during both the pre-conference and physical conference activities.

Based on their performance in the pre-conference activities and the final conference, delegates will be honored with the title of “Excellence in International Contribution to Quality Education.”

Keynote speakers and paper presenters will be honored with the “Excellence in Performance in Quality Education” award, based on their performance and professional contributions to the field of education. Educators will receive awards under Category I.

The “Excellence in Education Awards – 2026” will be presented under the category II to educators who have made significant lifetime contributions to the field of education.

Schools will be recognized with the “Excellence in Performance” award for their exemplary best practices.

Awards, medals, and mementos will be presented by the Dayananda Sagar University, Benguluru, India, along with Hon. Governor and other distinguished VIPs from Sri Lanka.

In addition to the formal sessions, the conference will feature school visits, model classroom demonstrations, interactive workshops, and cultural programs, enhancing the overall experience.

The conference provides a prestigious international platform for global leaders in education to present their expertise, share best practices, and contribute to the advancement of education standards. It offers a unique opportunity for all participants to forge international connections and collaborate in empowering their schools and institutions to achieve excellence in education.

The conference is limited to 100 educators, with selection based on early registration, qualifications, and professional experience.

02. Problem Statement

  • The global knowledge landscape is evolving rapidly, driven by significant scientific and technological advancements. In response, children must develop multidisciplinary skills to navigate the challenges of an increasingly complex global society. However, the current education system faces significant challenges in effectively addressing the needs of this dynamic environment.

  • To bridge the gap between the current state of learning outcomes and the demands of the future, substantial reforms are required to ensure the highest standards of quality, equity, and integrity within the educational system—from early childhood care and education to higher education. The lack of collaboration and international forums among countries significantly hinders the implementation of these necessary reforms.

  • The STREAM education approach, designed to equip children with 21st-century skills and prepare them for a rapidly changing world, has not been effectively implemented in many classrooms. Curricula, teaching methodologies, and assessment and evaluation systems in schools have not been upgraded at the pace required to align with STREAM principles and evolving global demands.

  • Moreover, there is an urgent need to enhance teacher empowerment and capacity-building mechanisms for educators and educational leaders to better meet the needs of a rapidly evolving society. The lack of motivation among educators for research and innovation limits the development of new strategies and solutions to address existing challenges and improve the quality of education.

  • Additionally, there is a dearth of international platforms where educators can share best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas aimed at improving the quality of education. The valuable contributions of educators and the excellence demonstrated by schools are not adequately recognized or evaluated on global platforms.

03. Vision:

“Enhance the quality of early childhood, primary, and secondary education by empowering STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship skills, green education, and mindfulness to build multi-talented global citizens with 21st-century skills and spiritual well-being.”

04. Mission:

“Our mission is to empower all educational stakeholders to equip children with the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving world, fostering their 21st-century competencies, spiritual well-being, and the long-term sustainability of individuals, nations, and the global society. We are committed to establishing strong international platforms and networks that elevate the quality of education by promoting STREAM education, employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness. Through these collaborative efforts, we recognize and honour excellence in performance and service while promoting knowledge sharing to continuously uplift the standards of global education.”

05. Objectives:

  • To establish international platforms and networks that empower educators—including teachers, principals, and educational leaders—in implementing STREAM education.

  • To create international platforms and networks for exchanging best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas to promote STREAM education within the school system.

  • To create international platforms and networks for the capacity development of teachers and educators in the following areas: early childhood and school curriculum development, teaching-learning methodologies (pedagogical approaches), assessment and evaluation systems, capacity building for educators, leadership and school management, special education, green education, quality standards in education, research and innovation in education, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) in education.

  • To develop international platforms and networks for sharing best practices in fostering employability, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness in schools, addressing the challenges of modern society.

  • To establish international platforms and networks for sharing best practices, research findings, and innovative ideas to equip children with 21st-century skills and promote their spiritual well-being. (Spiritual well-being is understood not as any particular religious or spiritual practice but as the overall quality of human existence.)

  • To recognize and honor the dedicated contributions of educators for their innovations, research findings, sharing of best practices, and unwavering commitment to quality education.

  • To acknowledge and celebrate the outstanding achievements of schools for their educational leadership, innovations, and contributions to advancing quality education.

06. Themes of the Conference

  • Curriculum Development: Enhancing school curricula by integrating STREAM education, employability skills, entrepreneurship, green education, and mindfulness.

  • Innovative Teaching Practices: Advancing teaching methodologies and pedagogical approaches to foster critical thinking and creativity in STREAM-related disciplines.

  • Assessment and Evaluation: Strengthening assessment and evaluation systems to more effectively measure student outcomes in STREAM education, employability, and entrepreneurial competencies.

  • Teacher Capacity Building: Empowering educators through continuous professional development to effectively implement STREAM education and promote green and mindful practices.

  • Leadership and Management: Strengthening school leadership and management capabilities to support the adoption of STREAM education and related initiatives.

  • Quality Standards and Accreditation: Enhancing the quality and standards of educational institutions through the integration of STREAM education and innovative practices.

  • Research and Innovation: Promoting research and innovation to drive evidence-based practices in STREAM education, entrepreneurship, and sustainability.

  • Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Encouraging partnerships with corporate entities to implement CSR initiatives that support STREAM education and holistic student development.

  • Technological Transformation in Education
    Artificial Intelligence, digital resources, TPACK classrooms, ERP systems, and many other technological tools are being implemented in education.

The conference is not merely a five-days event; it is an international initiative dedicated to enhancing the quality of education.

A comprehensive series of pre-conference activities has been scheduled, running from now until the conference’s conclusion. An international-level capacity development project is being implemented, allowing delegates to share best practices with thousands of educators across Sri Lanka and all over the world. 

Delegates can participate in these activities at their convenience, sharing innovative practices, research findings, and subject-matter expertise with education stakeholders worldwide. Pre-conference activities will include panel discussions, interactive sessions, workshops, live interviews, and presentations covering key areas such as curriculum development, pedagogical approaches, assessment and evaluation systems, teacher capacity building, educational leadership and management, quality standards, research, innovation, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). These sessions will be broadcast live on social media platforms, with recordings subsequently uploaded to YouTube and other educational websites for broader access.

These initiatives provide a platform for experts to contribute meaningfully to global education reform while earning international recognition and expanding their professional networks.

A special project has been implemented for the capacity development of educators in South Asian countries. https://www.iafqe.org/ipfcd/ If you are eligible to give presentations as a resource person, your registration fee will be refundable, and you will be invited as a special guest. Special awards will also be granted based on your performance as a resource person.
