💡Edugist Live in Hong Kong — Day 2: Conversations that Inspire Curiosity

Today at the Hong Kong Laureate Forum 2025, one theme echoed across every conversation: curiosity is timeless.

From Nobel and Shaw laureates to young scientists from around the world, everyone spoke about the power of asking questions — and how the courage to stay curious shapes both science and society.

For Edugist, this resonates deeply with our mission. Africa’s education future depends not only on access to learning but on cultivating curiosity — in classrooms, communities, and conversations.

We joined sessions exploring mentorship, innovation, and the role of science in solving humanity’s greatest challenges. The passion in the room was contagious — a reminder that education and science are partners in progress, not separate paths.

As we continue this journey, we’re taking these lessons back home: to inspire teachers, learners, and storytellers who believe that knowledge should spark change.
