Sages Advisory Panel
The Council for Global Education has an impressive Sages Advisory Panel from many different fields. The Council believes that education must be treated as an integrated process affecting all aspects of a child's development, and that the child's total development must be supported by society at large. Nothing short of a concerted effort on all fronts can provide hope for a better future for our children.
