  "account": "Hanoi welcomed education leaders from across Asia for the Governance as Leadership Training Institute (GALTI) 2026, held at the United Nations International School of Hanoi (UNIS Hanoi) from September 10-12. The three-day event brought together school heads and board chairs from leading international schools in Beijing, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, Singapore, and Taipei. They gathered to discuss responsible governance, strengthening institutional leadership, and preparing schools for the rapidly changing future, with a focus on the theme \"Future-ready governance: Governing with purpose and responsibility in an AI-shaped world.\"\n\nThis year's GALTI marks the institute's tenth anniversary and features a strong representation of Vietnamese education leaders, fostering dialogue between national and local authorities and international school leaders in the region. UNIS Hanoi's head of school, Dr Liz Gale, emphasized how Vietnam is not merely responding to the future of education but actively shaping it. The event highlighted the importance of collaboration between school boards and senior leaders to address challenges in an AI-driven world, ensuring responsible use of emerging technologies that safeguard student wellbeing, academic integrity, equity, and human relationships.\n\nThe official opening featured a keynote session on the responsibilities of school leaders and governing boards regarding artificial intelligence. Participants engaged in practical workshops and scenario-based sessions to explore areas like responsible AI governance, crisis leadership, head-board partnerships, strategic decision-making, and effective governance practices. As part of the event, student representatives led campus tours and shared their perspectives on AI's impact on learning and future education hopes. GALTI, designed as a working institute rather than a traditional conference, provides practical resources to attendees, including governance frameworks, board agendas, leadership dashboards, professional-development plans, and partnership agreements. Beyond regional governance, GALTI has supported local educational development since 2020 through the UNIS Hanoi Learning Together Fund, which funds an annual not-for-profit education conference for Vietnamese and international educators.",
