The theme this year is “Learning together, growing together: The power of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) in ELT professional development”. We are privileged to welcome back the fabulous Louise Carleton-Gertsch, who will be informing us on how we can prepare our students for the future, using the recently published Education for Human Flourishing framework, in her plenary Connecting, growing, thriving: Human flourishing in ELT.
