To our Filipino Teachers around the world,
Please take the survey and forward this message to our colleagues who are teacher migrants.
Education
International has given the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Educational Foundation a grant to conduct
research on global teacher migration and mobility. Through the research, we hope
to help EI identify best practices for international teacher migration as well
as highlight issues of concern and expose abuses. We also want to help our union
colleagues around the world develop and promote strategies for positive union
engagement with migrant teachers.
To better understand the motivation
and experience of migrant teachers around the world, we have developed an online
survey designed for individual teachers to complete and submit. Survey responses
are collected anonymously; however, teachers may include their names and contact
information if they wish to receive the results of the survey, along with the
completed report, and be entered into a drawing for an iPad.
If you
could fill this out and share with it other teachers in your network, whether
they are working in the U.S. or elsewhere, that would be extremely helpful. The
link to the
survey is here, and if for any reason anyone would prefer to print out the
survey and mail it, that is no problem either.
Maligayang pasko at maraming salamat po!
