Taking place from 24-27 October, the 48th Education International (EI) Executive Board meeting marks the first time the members have come together in a year.

Major items on the agenda include a review of decisions made since last year’s 7th World Congress in Ottawa, Canada; the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); and a look at the progress of EI’s Global Response campaign.

The ExBo also plans to look toward the planning of the organisation’s 8th World Congress in 2019.

On 25 October, academic Howard Stevenson from the University of Nottingham presents his study, “Changing unions in challenging times: international case studies in union renewal,” which recognises the scale of challenges confronting teachers.
