It's been an exciting week for the Rato Bangala School and Foundation, who have just been awarded the UNESCO- Hamdan Bin Al-Maktoum Prize! Website http://www.hamdanunesco.ae/ states that the award,
... set up in 2009 and funded by his Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, aims to support, encourage and benefit those working to enhance the performance and effectiveness of teachers towards Education for all. It attaches particular importance to outstanding practices in developing country contexts or those aimed at marginalized and disadvantaged communities. It also aims to facilitate the global sharing and dissemination of outstanding practices regarding teachers.
I have written a lot about the work of Rato Bangala in this blog and I hope you'll read some of my older posts to learn more about them. I'm proud to be associated with this wonderful organization. If you'd like to make a tax-deductible contribution to support their work, please use the link on this page or contact me directly.
