But how do students, the primary stakeholders in education, influence this vast architecture? This week, "FreshEd", a renowned podcast by Dr. Will Brehm from University College London, delves into this very question.

FreshEd, hosted by Associate Professor Dr. Will Brehm, has garnered acclaim for its ability to demystify intricate topics in educational research, making them easily accessible and relatable for the masses. Its newest episode features a conversation with our Director, Sebastian Berger, as they discuss student representation in international systems, particularly in bodies such as the United Nations & UNESCO. This timely episode coincides with the ongoing discussions around the Transforming Education Summit.

The conversation sheds light on the significant yet sometimes overlooked role of student unions in shaping global education decisions. Sebastian Berger, the Executive Director of the Global Student Forum, brings a wealth of experience and insight to the table.
