Is it important for the world's teachers to work together? Why? How?

I don't feel that educators who choose to broaden their wheel house to work in isolated places (other countries) are at a disadvantage. I see this as an opportunity to experience education at a different level and broaden the level of expertise. Either way, there is a benefit on both a personal and professional level.

One of the ways that educators alike can benefit from this level of experience is to establish a collabortive network and share experiences, lessons and stories.

If you are stuck with a problem, sometimes it makes sense to look at it with a new pair of glasses. There are problems in the education system of every country, which directly or indirectly affects the future of students. If teachers all over the world join hands and team up to solve these problems, you would be surprised to see how better the lives of students could be. It is understandable that some nations are being plagued with severe issues with respect to infrastructure, finances and planned curriculum. So, at first, our focus should be in helping out those countries to form a better education system. Secondly, the teachers need to be trained to teach slightly difficult subjects like Science or Math as they require a great deal of understanding.While changing a country's financial and educational system is out of our hands, we teachers can and should train each other in different skillsets. I believe we all have something to teach others. It would be great if more institutions are open to teacher exchange programs. But if that is not possible, some kind of an audio-video online platform where teachers can connect and teach would be great!
