Here's another example of how students (university in this case) are making glocal connections. I've been thinking of ways we can incorporate some micro-credit ideas into my work in Haiti and this article speaks to this as well. The work I have been doing around using digital technologies to develop educational leadership capacity in Haiti requires financial support from the north (the university and private donors to this point). We need to be able to make this work sustainable and that will require helping Haitian school leaders to find ways to support the training. If you have creative ideas of ways that we could use micro-credit concepts to support Haitian educational leaders in this way, please let me know (ssider@wlu.ca)!
