please could we have a quick meeting chris macrae bethesda 240 316 8157 - i can get downtown dc almost any time in next 7 days if you have a diary opening (or king and i can arrange tours of baltimore hubs almost any time ahead of the greatest celebration of thurgood marsdhall next month)
i am just back from wise at madrid WISE@Madrid: Imagining the Future of Education one of the most interesting projects cataloguing every learning that is digital is led by an under 30s guy from the netherlands whose main offices are now in london and beijing- its interesting what your peer compatriots are up to wolf TeachPitch - Learn More. Teach Better. (teach pitch has just completed its next million dollar funding round)

basically wise network connects the future of what youth can do with education (and open media) in parallel ways to how yours does with future of investment and conscious organisational innovation
As a maths guy, all I can do is profile ("human blockchain") networks, summit diaries,places where deepest community regeneration connections are likely to be made by and with under 30s (or in case of young professionals under 35s)
- because wise is based qatar they used the last few minutes at madrid and the santander corporate university campus (which claims to have connections with 2000 universities many of which it distributes scholarships to) just announced novembers summit will be on co-creativity
there are about 25000 youth doing active projects around wise world (that not counting what has been spiralling since wise arrived with its 1200 student educators summit in beijing last november); one of the problems is the technology they use is very one to one so even the most linkedin wise youth dont really know where parallel projects are going on in different languages
HOW STRANGE SPANISH IS 2ND MOST POPULOUS LANGAGE IN WORLDE BUT
open language peer to peer models of future education are one of the things the chinese friends of mine have promised to fix; equally this week was fascinating as it showed how isolated most latin speaking students still are with spain /madrid being the biggest block imaginable- i need to find the polite way to get faith movements to brainstorm this otherwise the advantages of pop-e francis in rome and jim kim at the world bank will be wasted while their is time to .linkin latin youth
as one makes a challenge map through each major culture one wonders whether english language leaders are really going to spend the next 4 years erecting walls instead of opening spaces - and thank goodness for chinese knocking down walls faster than the rest of our leaders can erect them
