TIDE Announcement 4th February 2021: Pause of tutor facilitated learning until further notice

Dear All,

We hope that this message finds you and your families and friends safe and well.

Following this week’s events in Myanmar, the TIDE project team are needing to take some time to reassess the current situation. This means that there will be a pause of all TIDE tutor facilitated learning, including all webinars and online meetings, until further notice. Please do not try and join any TIDE sessions from invitations you may previously have received.

Although we are pausing direct tutor facilitated learning, tutors will continue to post learning material online and we invite you to use these to continue your self-study. We understand that due to the current situation, not everyone may be able to access this learning material, so we encourage you only to continue with your self-study if you find it appropriate and safe to do so. 

Our priority at this time is focused on ensuring that TIDE participants stay safe and stay well.

Stay safe.
