The Policy & Advocacy track addresses education policy issues across local, regional, national, and international governance.
Topics include funding, curriculum and assessment standards, student data use and privacy, school safety, and digital policies, as well as economic development, advocacy and activism, and public-private partnerships.
SXSW EDU aims to represent the community's goals yearly, and as such prioritizes community engagement in the session selection process through PanelPicker®. Sessions are crowdsourced before being voted on and reviewed by the community, the Advisory Board, and SXSW EDU staff.
