"I am delighted to support the Global Teacher Prize since teachers are the key to building a better future for all humanity. Mahatma Gandhi spoke powerfully about how your beliefs, thoughts, words, actions, habits and values ultimately become your destiny. Teachers play a crucial role in shaping those traits and so in determining all of our futures."
