Context

Education has been dramatically impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Leading education is unprecedentedly challenging particularly in times of the pandemic. The world is currently dealing with the menace as well as looking ahead to determine how to effectively manage the post-pandemic processes. Researchers, governments, leaders in education and other stakeholders are actively engaged at all levels to understand and to reposition to manage the system effectively and efficiently. How should leadership in education transform, reinvent and innovate to deal with the present predicament and its subsequent influence on leading education in the post-pandemic world? This conference aims to explore opportunities and challenges of leading education in the pandemic and post-pandemic world and to create a platform to share innovative perspectives and approaches of leading in time of crisis and beyond. It focuses on getting and echoing the voices, thoughts, reflections and practices of leaders in education, policy makers, practitioners, educators and researchers.
