Latest edition of Worlds of Education now available for download
The 29th edition of EI's flagship magazine "Worlds of Education" focuses on the latest EI documentary produced for the Video for Union Educators (VUE) project: "Beyond Burma: lessons in hope for refugee children". The video offers a glimpse into the lives of dedicated teachers who, with few resources but plenty of skill and determination, strive to provide quality education to orphans and refugee children.
It also features Global Action Week, which will take place from 20 to 26 April. This will be a great occasion to advocate worldwide for youth and adult literacy, and lifelong learning.
This edition also contains articles on the atrocious femicide taking place in Democratic Republic of Congo, by guest speakers Eve Ensler and Stephen Lewis; on the links between brain research and classroom practice; on the much-needed investment in education to confront the current economic crisis; on the dangers of standardised testing; and on how education unions can get involved and participate in the radical action needed on climate change.
All articles featured in the magazine will also be made available in the Articles section of this site: www.ei-ie.org/article
