How can we equip students for a fast-changing world? That question lies at the heart of a new audiovisual series launched by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the Varkey Foundation. The series explores how teachers across Latin America are developing essential life skills, like empathy, critical thinking, perseverance, and collaboration in their students.

Amid the growing complexities brought by rapid technological change, education systems are being called to go beyond academic content and cultivate transversal skills crucial for both social and professional integration. These short videos bring theory into practice, offering concrete classroom strategies and teacher insights that can inspire change far beyond their borders. From Argentina to Colombia, viewers can witness how these educators are transforming education, one skill and one student at a time.
