About the Civil 20
The Civil 20 (C20) became an Official Engagement Group of the G20 in 2013 . Since then, the C20 has
grown stronger every year, ensuring that world leaders listen not only to voices representing the
government and business sectors, but also to the proposals and demands of civil society, with the
aim of protecting the environment and promoting social and economic development, human rights
and the principle of leaving no one behind. Our work is guided by our principles of inclusivity,
transparency, independence, collaboration, human rights, gender equality and women
empowerment. This year the C20 Engagement Group is joined by more than 800 members from
global Civil Society in 80 countries all round the globe.

C20 activities throughout the G20 presidency year, include:
▶ Speaking at G20 official meetings to represent the demands of civil society and the communities
  we serve
▶ Influencing G20 outcome documents including the G20 Leaders’ Communiqué
▶ Producing the C20 Policy Pack which details C20 positions in response to the G20 agenda of the
  year
▶ Issuing policy statements and open letters to G20 Ministers around G20 policy discussions
▶ Releasing the C20 Communiqué, which is Civil Society’s political declaration to G20 Leaders

Social and Emotional Learning: The Key to Addressing Major
Global Challenges in the Next Decade
  Format:   Panel Discussion
  Date:     Friday, 9th October 2020
  Time:     4:30PM – 6:00PM (Saudi Arabian Standard Time)

  Session Description:
  Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is one of the hottest topics in global education today. An exploration will be
  undertaken into how SEL can be taught, embedded in curricula, measured, and assessed, and why SEL skills and
  competencies are an essential part of the solution to many of great global challenges facing the next decade. The
  session will draw on established and cutting-edge research to define SEL, and to look at different SEL programs
  and practices from around the world. It will also demonstrate how the skills, competencies and behaviors that SEL
  programs help learners develop are essential for addressing a variety of global challenges. The session also
  provides opportunity to respond and contribute to a specific call to action to embed SEL throughout the decade
  ahead.

  This session will address the importance of increasing the supply of qualified educators and explore ways of doing
  so on a global scale. It will explore the need for developing inclusive teacher training policies to ensure diversity of
  teachers capable of educating every social demographic. The session will contribute the benefits of SEL in
  increasing students’ chances of accessing higher education. The C20 Education Working Group calls for SEL
  certification must be incorporated into the mainstream curricula across all levels and pathways of education
  provision. This session will discuss the contribution SEL would have on civil society across both industrialized and
  developing countries.

                                                                                                                Session Guide

Session
   Participants
          Leslee Udwin
Speaker
          Founder and President
          Think Equal, UK
          Leslee was voted by the NY Times the No 2 Most Impactful Woman of 2015
          (second to Hillary Clinton), and has been awarded the prestigious Swedish
          Anna Lindh Human Rights Prize (previously won by Madeleine Albright).
          She has also been named Safe’s Global Hero of 2015, Global Thinker by
          Foreign Policy, and the GlobalmindED award for Arts and Education in
          2019. In 2019 Leslee was awarded the UN Women for Peace Activist Award
          at the United Nations, UN Association USA’s Global Citizen of 2019 and the
          Gandhi Foundation International Peace Award.
           A former filmmaker and now campaigner for a system change on
          education, Leslee is no stranger to successful campaigning films. “Who
          Bombed Birmingham?” (starring John Hurt) for HBO and Granada TV,
          directly led to the release of the ‘Birmingham Six’ after 17 years of wrongful
          imprisonment. Her feature film "East is East" (35 prestigious awards
          worldwide, including a BAFTA for Best Film) did much to promote
          tolerance and the celebration of diversity as between the Asian and British
          communities and has become a classic film taught in schools across
          Europe. Her documentary "India's Daughter", has been critically acclaimed
          around the globe, won 32 awards (including the Peabody Award and the
          Amnesty International Media Award for Best Documentary 2016) and
          sparked a global movement to end violence against women and girls.
           The searing insights yielded by the 2½ journey making “India’s Daughter”,
          led Leslee to found UK-and-US-based Not for Profit global education
          initiative “Think Equal”, of which she is the CEO. This early years education
          programme, the solution to the problem the film laid bare, is currently
          impacting 39,850 children in 14 countries across 5 continents (Australia,
          Botswana, Canada, Colombia, India, Kenya, Mexico, Northern Macedonia,
          Singapore, South Africa, Sri Lanka, UK, USA and Trinidad Tobago). Partners
          of Think Equal include UNICEF, UNESCO, Pope Francis’s Scholas; the AC
          Milan Foundation; Montessori; the Institute for Healthy Minds (Wisconsin
          Madison University); Charter for Compassion, the Dalai Lama / Emory
          University’s SEE Curriculum and the Yale University Center for Emotional
          Intelligence.
