Perfect timing to celebrate all things (and people!) inspiring in open education and beyond - and for this very special episode we welcome a very special guest: Chahira Nouira . Tune in to share plenty of inspiration, hear Chahira's perspective on how things are changing in Open Education and the enduring importance of Open Education practice AND join in the fun as we share some of the projects and people that inspire us and bring a smile to our face.
