HundrED Global Collections are annual, highly selective searches for the 100 most impactful and scalable education innovations. Browse through the collections and submit your own innovation for review.
HundrED’s flagship project, the Global Collection, is a highly selective search for the 100 most impactful and scalable education innovations globally. Innovations that have joined the ranks of the Global Collection are contextual powerhouses, attending to the most relevant educational issues of the day with creativity and ingenuity, and keeping the child at the centre of that work. Their work is inspirational to others worldwide.
An education innovation is a novel practice, programme, product, project, or intervention that presents a relative advantage over what currently exists in a particular context. Education innovators who wish to apply should be prepared to clearly demonstrate the impact and scalability of their innovation with different forms of evidence, including (but not limited to) media, reports, studies, and testimonials.
From submission to selection, the curation of the Global Collection is focused on identifying the most impactful and scalable education innovations for that year.
Submission to the Global Collection is ongoing between May 2 and May 1 of the following year. HundrED makes a direct call to innovators the January before submissions close.
Using its Standards of Evidence, the Research team reviews hundreds of submissions to create a shortlist for the HundrED Academy to evaluate. For two weeks at the beginning of June, the HundrED Academy convenes for the Global Collection review period.
Based on the Academy reviews, the HundrED Research Team makes the final selections of 100 innovations. Innovators are notified, and the selection is made public through the Global Collection Reveal at the HundrED Summit and a report, which is published at that time.
Every year we select 100 inspiring education innovations around the world.
The HundrED Hall of Fame is a category within our Global Collection that gives special recognition to education innovations that have demonstrated sustained growth of impact and scalability year after year. Over time, these innovations have shown evidence of being responsive to the current needs in education worldwide.

HundrED Spotlights are focused research projects that highlight education innovations based on a specific region or theme. Spotlights are created in partnership with external foundations and organisations.
Each year, over 150 education stakeholders from all around the world are selected to join the HundrED Academy and review innovations for the Global Collection. During the review process, they extend their wealth of knowledge and expertise on a global and local scale to identify the most impactful and scalable 100 innovations featured in the collection. Applications for HundrED Academy are accepted on an ongoing basis, with annual deadlines to confirm participation in the Global Collection reviews.
