Teach Me Award | ICIA 2026 Highlights

Education is not only about teaching—it is about inspiring others to learn, grow, and create change.

The Teach Me Award celebrates educators and young changemakers who bring creativity, innovation, and meaningful approaches into learning. Through their stories, projects, and experiences, participants showed how education can become a powerful force for positive impact.

From Cambodia to Indonesia, these moments captured the spirit of learning, sharing, and inspiring one another across borders. 🌏✨

Take a look at the highlights from the Teach Me Award at ICIA 2026.

What is ESG and what does it have to do with innovation?

As we prepare for the ICIA 2027 Innovation Challenge, we're introducing a framework that will shape this year's challenge: ESG — Environmental, Social, and Governance.

ESG encourages us to look beyond simply creating a solution. It challenges us to think about its impact on the environment, people, and the systems around us.

Because innovation isn't only about asking "Can we solve this problem?"

It's also about asking:

🌱 What impact will it have on our planet?
🤝 How can it improve people's lives?
⚖️ Can it create responsible and sustainable change?

This is where innovation meets purpose.

And now, it's your turn to think beyond the problem and start imagining what you could create.

Stay tuned for the ICIA 2027 Innovation Challenge.

Since its founding, Duluin has empowered more than 50,000 workers, partnered with over 100 companies, and facilitated US$27 million+ in wage withdrawals, creating a healthier financial ecosystem for both employees and employers.
