Gitanjali believes everyone deserves access to quality education that empowers them to thrive and build a more just, sustainable world. She is an experienced high school social studies educator whose passion for social change pulled her to work beyond the classroom in community, nonprofit, and higher education.
Today, through her consultancy Gitanjali Learning Design, she specializes in designing and facilitating Education for Sustainable Development, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals. She collaborates with incredible organizations, like the Institute for Humane Education, to make civic education and systems change accessible to more people. As a Solutionary Teaching and Learning Facilitator, Gitanjali is excited to engage educators and youth in designing and running projects that transform their communities through the Solutionary Framework!
Gitanjali is indefatigably inquisitive. Her academic journey, including a B.A. in Peace and Justice Studies from Tufts University, a PGCE in Secondary Education from the University of Sunderland, and an M.Ed in Education Policy, Research, and Administration from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, reflects her commitment to continuous learning. She draws inspiration and joy from nature, family adventures, kitchen experiments, and her Filipina rescue cat, Mahatma Charlie.
