He took office on 6 December 2021 as the first Secretary-General of the OEC.

The future to which we aspire, collectively, is one which can only be served by an education which steps beyond the idea of inclusivity as mere access to an education. The future to which we aspire, collectively, is one which can only be served by an education which embraces inclusivity as an indivisible triumvirate, an indissoluble combination of access to an education; holistic, humanistic, and progressive social policies; and perpetual novelty in curricula, content, and pedagogy.
