Founded in 2002 by Gene Sperling, the Center for Universal Education is a policy center at the Brookings Institution focused on universal quality education particularly in the developing world. Originally a think tank for the Council on Foreign Relations, it moved to the Brookings Institution in 2009.^[1] The center works to influence the development of policy related to global education and promotes actionable strategies for governments, civil society and private enterprise. Through its research, policy engagement, and convening, the Brookings Institution's Center for Universal Education aims to inform the global education agenda, advance learning metrics, improve education resources and learning outcomes, and reach marginalized groups.^[2]
