Today is the final day of our five-day 2013 Global Education Conference.
Join us today for a great set of final presentations, as well as for our closing celebration: we'll hear a special message from US Congresswoman Nita Lowey, get reports on the five grassroots projects, announce dates for some special 2014 events, and issue the conference-created Global Education Declaration.
Our free conference runs all week and is open to anyone to attend--spread the word with Twitter hashtag #globaled13.
