On 19th January 2019, New Acropolis Pune hosted a talk on Rethinking Education. The speaker revisited the basics and explored the role of education, suggesting that the essential purpose of education is not just to get a good job but to equip us to fulfil life in every sense, to foster investigation, help us pursue dreams and be an empowered individual who contributes to the world around us. Real Education could help us bring out our potential from within. This, he suggested, can happen largely if what is transmitted is not just information but values – the building blocks of character and ethical living, which are priceless in taking ourselves and our world forward.
