Message from academic lecture facilitators

It is a matter of great pleasure and privilege to be part of the project of sharing knowledge with teachers in India and Sri Lanka. I am sure that the deliberations shared by the most experienced intellects in the field of education would be of immense help. I hope the endeavour of exchanging ideas and knowledge between India and Sri Lanka will be a great success, and will also provide a vibrant forum for sharing knowledge with fellow educators.
