Abstract: The 2025 cohort of the UNICEF Youth Foresight Fellowship embarked on a journey to explore the futures of education. Over the course of three months, fellows conducted horizon scanning to identify early signs of change, collecting more than 140 scan hits. Then, in the following two months, they organized more than 40 workshops, involving over 800 children and young people in 15 different countries. The rich insights gained from the research and discussions, rooted in young people's lived experiences and aspirations, are central to this year's Young Visionaries: "Child Rights Youth Foresight Report" -- and they will undoubtedly continue to play a key role in shaping future editions. This report is a testament to what becomes possible when meaningful youth participation meets foresight, bringing together the visions and recommendations of children and young people across 15 countries. It also showcases the benefits of not only listening to young people but actively empowering them to shape the futures they are likely to inherit. This report focuses on education, exploring emerging threats, opportunities and visions that could potentially reshape learning for all.
