This newsletter issue, our first of the year, is packed with information and resources on global education. Key topics are the teaching of women's issues and teaching about the environment - themes in line with International Women's Day (March 8) and Earth Day (April 22). We hope this issue helps you add a global perspective to your language teaching for 1994!
