The book presents trust, capacity and accountability as the three building blocks of education systems and education system reform. 

This webinar will show how these three concepts interact with consequences that vary among countries and how the framework allows understanding of successful and unsuccessful change. 

Examples from the country chapters in part two of the book (Chile, the US, Finland, Singapore, the Netherlands and South Africa) will be used to illustrate the framework.
