Turning the Lights On
One of our Board members recently observed that we sometimes dance in the dark — doing important work, building something distinctive, but not always making visible the design choices — and the everyday practices they enable — that sit behind it. That comment stayed with me. It prompted a simple question: not whether we should be louder, but whether we should be clearer.
Learning that doesn’t change behaviour isn’t learning – it’s observation
Organisations talk a great deal about learning. We hold reviews, commission analyses, write reports and reflect carefully on what happened. We often finish by asking a familiar and seemingly sensible question: what have we learned?
Debate Theme No. 1: Social and Ethical Issues
The question of whether social media platforms should be held responsible for sharing misleading information cannot be answered in simple terms. It involves balancing freedom of expression, technological limitations, user responsibility, and societal expectations.
When actions stall, maybe I’m the problem

Teaching and Learning Bulletin
As AI tools become part of everyday academic practice, from ChatGPT and Grammarly to NotebookLM and beyond, our students increasingly turn to them for speed, structure and inspiration. We cannot control this. Instead, our shared task is to encourage responsible, reflective and academically grounded use of these tools.
Success Belongs to the Community, Not the Individual
Real success rarely comes from a single leader, a single decision or a single moment. It comes from a connected, empowered and well-motivated community — one where people support each other, challenge each other, and feel part of something bigger than their own role.
