Explore the true meaning of education in this thought-provoking TEDx talk by Mustapha Shehu. Challenge common definitions of education as merely classroom learning or obtaining a college degree. Discover the big idea that an educated person is one who provides solutions to societal problems anywhere in the world. Reflect on the impact individuals can make beyond holding a college certificate. Learn from Shehu's 16+ years of experience in development spaces, including roles as a project coordinator, monitoring evaluation officer, and education planner across various levels of government in Nigeria. Gain insights into information technology solutions, Education Management Information System (EMS), and Teacher Management Information System (TMIS). Hear from a two-time State Project Coordinator of UNICEF's Girls Education Project (GEP) 3 and current State Project Coordinator of the Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment (AGILE) Project in Katsina State.
