Paul Rowe is the former CEO of Educate Together, having lead the organisation for 21 years. He brings a special perspective to the debate on the future of education and the challenges faced by this generation of children in school. Here he speaks about "The Future of Equality based Education in Ireland and the World." His advice to charities is worth following, and he advocates moving beyond the issue of religious control of education and into the wider objective of achieving social and cultural equality.
