The six winning projects were selected for their innovative approaches and positive impact upon societies and education, under the theme of Transforming Education: Investment, Innovation and Inclusion.

The 2011 Jury’s choices highlight the growing significance of sharing knowledge through new information and communication technologies. Three of the winning projects provide wide access to materials and tools for teaching and learning through open source platforms. Dynamic inter-sectoral partnerships and innovative approaches to teaching through problem-solving and creative thinking are also represented in the Jury’s selection.
