ORIGINS SCRIPT

With a dream to inspire the spirit of creative collaboration across the world, we are extremely excited to announce a global collaboration with Ideas World Cup and the BIC Corporate Foundation.

The Foundation’s core mission is to drive high-quality education programs for all. With a focus on building creative skills, the Bic Foundation directly enables and empowers participants to build stronger, more inclusive, and more creative communities.

In 2021, Executive Director of the BIC Corporate Foundation, Alison James, invited a small group of committed individuals
(researchers, practitioners, educators, NGO leaders, and policymakers) to form the Global Creativity Community Practice aka C-COP.
The purpose of the C-COP is to accelerate the development of creative skills, amplify creativity in the design of education programs, and promote creativity in the adoption of education policies across the globe for our children and youth.

This founding group is excited to now announce the launch of our global manifesto for Creativity in education on April 21st – International Creativity Day Join us in co-creating the world's largest brainstorm for social change...and become part of our global C-COP community.

We share a vision in which creativity will support the healthy evolution of individuals, communities, organizations, and companies as we dream, scheme, and imagine a world of accessible and inspiring education for all!
