There are always people from all over the world at this conference, which is one of the biggest gatherings of teachers of English as a foreign language in the world and this year was no exception.<br \/>\nOne really nice surprise for me was to meet up with We\u2019am Hamdan who I had recently worked with virtually. I love working online but it\u2019s always nice to meet people face to face and We\u2019am had travelled a long way from Palestine to be in Liverpool where she was leading a session for the IATEFL <a href=\"http:\/\/gisig.iatefl.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Global Issues<\/a> special interest group. We\u2019am was talking about a really interesting and universal topic so we have decided to devote this whole show to it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nHere\u2019s how We\u2019am enticed people to her session before the conference.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sNA9Ql2VKK0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>absolutely gendered<\/strong><br \/>\nI was intrigued to learn more about gender issues in Palestine and when I caught up with We\u2019am it turned out that gender issues in Palestine is really about gender issues globally.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think? How would you have reacted to that male student who said \u2018 Women should stay at home\u2019?<\/p>\n<p>The IATEFL conference records some of the main sessions. You will find a link to the page for the videos <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teachingenglish.org.uk\/events\/IATEFL-Online\/2019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>. One of the main themes this year was about inclusivity, so you don\u2019t have to be an English language teacher to find something of interest!<\/p>\n<p>And <a href=\"https:\/\/baby-fist.com\/get-inspired\/2017\/12\/27\/not-your-habibti-street-stories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> is the link to the stories We&#8217;am used to share the lived experience of Palestinian women.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more on our blog here where you can also access our archives.
