Creating education freedom by enabling mentorship for all
Every week at our team All Hands, we review our Mission (what we’re trying to achieve) and our Strategy (how we’re going to get there). Towards the end of Q3, I reviewed our values, principles, milestones and lessons learnt — the things that defined our community as a whole.
One of the questions I often hear from people is, “How does mentorship empower education as a system?” This is a great question and I want to share my thoughts with all of you.
TLDR; Our core vision is to democratize mentorship for all, this is so it increases education freedom globally — and solves many shortcomings of current education system that hinder the choice to pursue potential career paths.
What is education freedom?
Education freedom quantifies the accessibility for people to be educated according to their personal views or choice. Education freedom varies dramatically across the world, and while our access to better tools and institutions increase globally, the government still has significant control over some choices (eg. supply-demand in workforce, limited cap in studies, etc). Lower education freedom is only often due to simply due to weak infrastructure for access.
