gordon brown has assembled revolutionary leaders of education starting with jack ma, jim kim, ...
south africa seems to be represented by graca machel- is she likely to mention your work in the free university's million jobs map and mandela extranet or  will she stay focused on gender issues?



We are trying to ensure the conversation sustains way beyond  one UN presentation
-all ideas on how to do this most welcome

WE have some opportunity to brief gordon browns chief of staff in new york and my friends in glasgow have some opportunities to get to gordon and so on around the world wherever we are linked in by global youth platforms, coders, hubs hackathons etc

all the best chris macrae
