HundrED Global Collection 2027

Abstract

HundrED’s Global Collection 2027 showcases 100 impactful and scalable innovative solutions in K12 education originating from 45 countries and collectively reaching more than 152 million learners worldwide. Selected from 846 submissions through a rigorous, collaborative, and youth-inclusive review process, the Collection highlights diverse approaches to improving education and explores their contributions to human flourishing.

Building on the HundrED's mission, every child to flourish, the report examines how educational innovations support human flourishing through four interconnected themes: Access and Opportunity, Personal Growth and Wellbeing, Relationships and Belonging, and Enabling Learning Environments.

The analysis illustrates how innovative solutions expand access to quality learning, nurture learners’ confidence, agency, and wellbeing, strengthen meaningful relationships and inclusive communities, and create supportive environments in which learners can thrive. It also highlights the importance of context, recognising that flourishing is shaped not only by individual development but also by the opportunities, relationships, and wider conditions surrounding learning.

Together, the selected innovations offer practical perspectives on how education can move beyond academic outcomes to support the holistic development of young people.
