I wrote a piece for Norrag about my experiences attending the 2018 Global Education Meeting in early December. These types of international meetings are important for academics studying global education governance. However, for many, it’s simply impossible to gain access. I got in on a press pass, which made sense since I conducted interviews for FreshEd. Since I had access, I decided to write my personal reflections in efforts to make visible parts of the global governance process that often remain hidden.  In other words, I wanted to highlight what Roger Dale would call the politics of education. This is why I included photos and audio from the event; I wanted to give non-conference-goers an inside look at the meeting. There is certainly much more to say about the process of the meeting and its outcomes, which I hope to do in the coming months.
