25 Years of the “Inconvenient Truth” of Global Education Reform: An interview

During the latest edition of the EduTech Asia in Singapore last November I gave an interview to Unwire, a Hong Kong based group working on education and technology. Winnie from Unwire asked good questions and turned that interview into published piece now available in Chinese at the Unwire platform.

Winnie writes: “At EDUtech Asia 2025 last November, Professor Pasi Sahlberg was undoubtedly the most anticipated keynote speaker. In his speech, he provided a deep analysis of the origins of the modern education dilemma and why the situation continues to worsen. He offered a starting point for policymakers and schools, highlighting the critical factors to watch during transformation. The Unwire team witnessed his compelling presentation and had the privilege of speaking with him afterward to explore his core arguments in depth.”
