 Hi everybody, Paul Stacey here. I'm in the Kitsilano neighborhood of downtown Vancouver where I live. A beautiful mural behind me of wings. I thought I'd use that as a theme for inviting you to submit a proposal to our upcoming OE Global 19 conference taking place in Milano in November. The theme of the conference is open education for an open future and one of the aspects of that that we're exploring is how open education enables people to cross boundaries and so I thought how fitting to to use some wings to invite you to submit a proposal because of course wings allow us to take flight and from far above we can easily cross boundaries and so I hope you come to OE Global in Milano and and explore how open education can help you and your students take flight and explore new boundaries and new frontiers.
