Great this from Stephen Sterling.
Why don’t governments take education for sustainability seriously?

The 1st #openaccess paper from JustEd is out written by wonderful colleagues Mafer Rodriguez and Maria Balarin about shallow pedagogies as epistemic injustice in Peru. Those who heard Maria's UKFIET conference keynote may be particularly interested.

This is a wonderful project. (And can any of my Nepali friends help with any well-sourced information on Bhujel, Darai, Dham and Kirati/Rai scripts?)

Dear Predatory Journal,
Thanks so much for getting in touch. I am deeply honoured that you consider my work ‘outstanding’ in areas as diverse as nursing, cybernetics and archaeology.
Sadly though I won't be able to help out with that one last article you need for your issue.
