Jeff Puryear of Inter-American Dialogue Discusses Leveraging the Private Sector for Education

Jeff Puryear, VP of Social Policy at the Inter-American Dialogue (PREAL), shares his thoughts on how private donors from the worlds of business and philanthropy can join forces to bolster educational progress around the globe. Over a hundred leaders in the field gathered in Washington DC for a high-level meeting on "Leveraging the Private Sector for Results in Education," hosted by the World Bank on March 30-31, 2010. We asked a handful of these experts to sound off on the power of private sector collaboration and innovation in the educational landscape. Their ideas and insights are collected in this video diary series.
