How did you hear about us and a few words why you want to join EBB:

I heard about TWB from a colleague - had never heard of the organization before and have always thought that teachers in Canada should be involved in an organization like Medcins Sans Frontieres. I believe it is important for us in the privileged parts of the world to share our resources (human and other) with less privileged citizens of the world. International collaboration on educational issues can only benefit all of us.
