Dr. Emily Musil Church is strategist, thought leader, writer, public speaker, Fulbright Scholar, and former professor who is now taking education and learning to a whole new level as Executive Director at the groundbreaking XPRIZE which harnesses technology to address global challenges for social good. Connecting over 700 teams to radically transform access to education and learning worldwide, she led the $15M Global Learning XPRIZE, funded by Elon Musk, to address the quarter-billion children that cannot read, write, or do basic math. The competition resulted in 5 teams developing open-source, scalable software that empowers children to teach themselves, returning $300 million worth of research, and positively affecting the lives of 3000 children in 170 villages across rural tanzania. For more visit Evolvethe.World Links:XPRIZE:https://xprize.org/Code Games:http://codegameschallenge.org/Connect website: http://connect.xprize.org/XPRIZE Data Collaborative: https://data.xprize.org/ (click on “Learning” category for Global Learning results, including social-emotional)XPRIZE Pandemic Alliance: https://www.xprize.org/fight-covid19 Social:Instagram, Twitter, Facebook @XPRIZEOur blog: https://xprize.org/blogYouTube: XPRIZELinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/x-prize-foundation/
