We are delighted to confirm that Fred Mednick, Founder of Teachers Without Borders will speak at the Beyond Borders conference at Oxford on April 20th.
After more than 20 years as a teacher and principal, Dr. Fred Mednick founded Teachers Without Borders (TWB) in 2000, a nonprofit organisation that provides professional training for teachers worldwide and helps them to play a more vital role in their communities. Believing that a commitment to global education is a universal responsibility, Dr. Mednick has travelled extensively throughout the world and lent his time, skills, and training to onsite development forums, most recently in Dujiangyan, China-the region of the May 2008 earthquake that killed tens of thousands of people. Fred’s work with Teachers Without Borders has led his invitation to the prestigious Global Creative Leadership Summit (100 of the world’s promising leaders) and was Cisco Systems’ guest at the Nobel Prize summit in 2006.
