Three days at the AISA Africa conference in Cape Town, followed by a work day with the AISA Service Learning Design Team, have been incredible. There were SO many passionate and impactful educators gathered in Cape Town, and several educators spent every day exploring aspects of thoughtful and purposeful service learning. What a joy! My heart and mind are full as I return home for a few weeks. Thanks to all of the amazing educators and leaders I spent time with over this past week!
