With 60 members who voted it is reassuring to see that there was such a high level of interest in just who of the incredible candidates would be on our OEG Board.

We also extend deep appreciation to Alexis Clifton and Som Naidu, the outgoing Board members, for their invaluable time, experience and input into guiding Open Education Global over the last few years.

OEGlobal looks forward to working with the newly elected Board members and all members of the open community on advancing open education around the world over the coming year.
