Our Leadership Team
LW5S is run by an international team of educators who are committed to our mission of ensuring free and equitable 21st Century Education and lifelong learning opportunities for all. We are a team of volunteers who are here because we truly believe that education is for everyone and we want to serve students and educators. Because our team is made up of volunteers, we can put more of our resources towards serving those who need them the most.
