The Infinity Classroom
Idea
260 million children around the world do not go to school today. By 2030, more than half of the world’s children won’t have the basic skills to succeed. Theirworld created The Infinity Classroom on the United Nations main plaza for the 2019 General Assembly. The 10’x10’x15’ mirrored classroom created the effect of nearly infinite rows of empty school desks, visually depicting the number of unenrolled children. Presidents and Prime Ministers from around the world visited the room, shared our story and helped raise $2.3 billion for education, the single largest mobilization for education in one day.
