“Education should not be the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” — William Butler Yeats

Given responsible travel practices and global uncertainty as we all do our part to curb the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 Teacher Brigade was postponed to 2021. We continue to be in close (while distant!) contact with our project partners, providing virtual support through our education project initiatives. As always, we will make decisions moving forward with respect to travel in 2021 in the best interests of those we serve.

Building on the 2018 and 2019 teacher brigades to the Comitancillo region of Guatemala, we continue to partner with the Alberta Teacher’s Association in support of future brigades to support local teachers learning to incorporate technology in math and language lessons through our Technology for Improved Education project.
