Dear Fellow Leap Ambassadors:

Knowing how much everyone enjoys homework, we are asking Leap Ambassadors to help us out in advance of this session by completing a brief survey.

Like everything these days, we need this response ASAP, but at least by April 10th😊. Thank you.

For our joint conference workgroup, Quentin and I are creating an exercise to illustrate the value and challenges of community engagement in shaping the outcomes and indicators by which policymakers, funders, program managers and consumers establish and measure program success.

We respectfully ask that you take a moment to consider the following United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #4: Quality Education and related Targets (listed in this survey). Then, please indicated the most important ONE from your personal perspective. There is NO wrong answer.

We also welcome any additions or edits to the Targets for Education you might have to offer.

NOTE: Much coveted (!) extra credit will be provided to any Leap respondent that provides us with the name of any organization, program, policy group or work group that is addressing your same selected target/s.

THANK YOU! Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday, May 5, 2pm – 3:30pm ET at the Leap Conference.

Cheers,

Quentin Wilson Distinguished Executive,

The George Washington University Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration
