The C20 Education Summit, held under the purview of the C20 Education and Digital Transformation Working Group, brought together distinguished experts, policymakers, and educators to discuss the pressing need for digital transformation in public schools. With the event's primary objective of deliberating on the role of digital transformation in equitable education, participants aimed to conceptualize policy recommendations that the C20 chair will present to the G20 Leaders.

The summit commenced with welcoming remarks by Raj Vuchatu, Executive Director of Vibha Atlanta, followed by the ceremonial Lighting of the Lamp by all the distinguished guests, symbolizing knowledge and wisdom.

The Honorable Consul General of India delivered the esteemed keynote speech, Dr. Swati Vijay Kulkarni, who emphasized the importance of inclusion and collaboration in shaping the future of public education. "G20 is a people-centric occasion where Civil Society's involvement is critical, and India's G20 presidency exemplifies it. I am delighted that this C20 Education and Digital Transformation Working Group summit was organized here in Atlanta by Mata Amritanandamayi Centers, U.S.A., and Vibha. The keywords to note here are Inclusion and Collaboration.", said Dr. Kulkarni.

Br. Ramanandamrita Chaitanya from the M.A. Center delivered a warm welcome and introduction speech, setting the tone for the engaging discussions that were to follow.

"As pointed out by Amma in Her video message, let the digital transformation of the education system take in its stride a change in the stereotypical approach, wherein students are encouraged to think "How can I GIVE" more than "How can I get" from the education I receive.", said Br. Ramanandamrita Chaitanya.

The event featured an impressive lineup of invited expert speakers who shared their insights and expertise.

Padma Bhushan Dr. Jagdish Sheth from Emory University provided valuable perspectives on the role of technology in education. "Digital transformation of all institutions is universal and inevitable. There is no way of resisting it. We must adjust and adapt to the emerging technology.", said Dr. Sheth in his inspiring speech.

Dr. Revi Sterling, an expert on gender equality in technology and education from CARE, contributed to the discussions by highlighting the importance of inclusivity in the digital age. "The most significant divide before was urban and rural, young and old, caste and religion, male and female; but now, the divide is between people who have information and those who don't. We must bridge this gap," said Dr. Sterling.

Julie Brennen, representing the Mentor Me Program and My Forsyth Magazine, shared her experiences as a volunteer and a mentor in this critical digital age. "To be Impactful, we should truly consider volunteering and mentoring. When you volunteer, you become a little extra; you become much larger than who you are.", said Ms. Brennen.

Vijay Vemulapalli, Vibha's Board Member, skillfully moderated an engaging Q&A session, allowing participants to delve deeper into the topics. His thoughtful and intelligent questions sparked enlightening discussions and brought forth valuable perspectives from the audience and panelists alike.
