GLOBE Alumni
04 October 2006
The 2006 Annual Conference featured GLOBE Alumni representatives from
each of the six regions: Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Near East and North America. The alumni presented a draft of their vision and purpose along with an expression of deep gratitude for the support and guidance they had received from their regional coordinators and the GLOBE Program Office. They also expressed gratitude for the continued sense of belonging in GLOBE'S community and pledged their cooperation in all GLOBE activities.
The first order of business for each regional representative is to begin the work of developing a regional corps of GLOBE Alumni volunteers. To help in this effort the Alumni asked that all Country Coordinators, Partners, Regional Contact persons, and teachers begin to think about how to prepare and recruit students to participate in GLOBE on a new level. Additionally they suggested that teachers should be urged to begin the identification of graduating students who might like to be involved with the GLOBE Alumni organization.
Regional Representatives:
The GLOBE Alumni initiative is in its infancy and needs much nurturing. Please send any alumni information, volunteer projects, or ideas for development to Dr. Sheila Yule, Coordinator of GLOBE Alumni, at syule@globe.gov, or phone 303.497.2649. This initiative has tremendous potential and is a source of pride for the entire GLOBE community.
