[PeDAGoG] WEBINAR: "De-colonizing our bodies"

[Sara Niner]

Dear Colleagues

There are so many of these presentations I would like to watch or share
with my students but because we are 'downunder' they all happen in the
middle of night in Australia and I wonder if information could be included
about if they will be recorded and where they might be available later.
thanks Sara
