The campaign includes a new webpage,with resource pages for “tips and tricks,” as well as global news resources. ICDE is also organising regular webinars, last week these were “Educational Leadership during the Corona Virus Pandemic” and “Open, online, and distance teaching and learning during the Corona Virus pandemic.” Both webinars received a large amount of registrants and participants including panelists and chairs from New Zealand (Mark Nichols), Malaysia (Dato Ansary Ahmed), Fiji (Som Naidu), Sweden (Ebba Osiannilsson), Oman (Aisha Al-Harthi), and Portugal (Antonio Teixeira)
