“Education is a right. Everyone should have access to it, like the air we breathe.” – Professor Anant AGARWAL

But too often, it is only available to a few. Professor Agarwal was instrumental in the development of edX, an online learning platform created by MIT and Harvard. From the get-go, he knew that apart from the small number of people admitted as students each year, there were far more people capable of enjoying the world-class education provided by these institutions.

Watch the documentary to find out how edX empowers determined students to overcome geographical, financial, and other barriers to access high-quality educational opportunities.
