These experts include the former prime minister of Australia, Julia Gillard; Surin Pitsuwan, the former secretary-general of ASEAN and former foreign minister of Thailand; as well as several current deputy ministers of education from Southeast Asia and education experts from the United States.

At the EPF, principals and school managers from eight countries will share their experiences, offering a platform for different schools in the region to build partnerships.

Worlddidac Asia 2015 will also put forward special showcases such as the Skills for the Future showcase, where mechatronics students from Asian countries will compete against each other in preparation for their WorldSkills adventure in Brazil this summer.
