Description
The American Keishia Thorpe wins the Global Teacher Prize in Paris at UNESCO's headquarters, an annual prize awarded to a teacher who has made an outstanding contribution to the profession. The award by the Varkey Foundation promotes education, and is presented this year by actress Isabelle Huppert. Chosen from among more than 8,000 candidates, this English teacher in Maryland, an immigrant of Jamaican origin, campaigns for "more inclusive" access to higher education, especially for her non-English-speaking high school students, first-generation immigrants and refugees.
