EIL was 75 years old in 2007 and Kevin Hickey (Director of EIL Ireland and President of the Worldwide Federation of EIL at the time) address the attendance at the celebrations in Berlin.

I can think of no better way to start my blog as Director of EIL than by paying a warm tribute to Paul Conway who completed his six year term as Chair of the Board of EIL Intercultural Learning on January 31st. Paul is a remarkable man who has given huge service to EIL over many years as an unpaid volunteer, leader, mentor and visionary.
