Learning - Dr. Paul Robinson, Director of the Human Needs and Global
Resources Program at Wheaton College.
Dr. Robinson writes:  I was born in the "Belgian" Congo.  For more than five
decades, my life     experiences have been largely centered in Africa, and
in much of what we call the "Global South," where I     have had the
privilege of learning from other cultures.  For almost three decades, I have
also had the privilege     of sharing that learning with students through
cross-cultural learning and service educational programs. What     have we
learned?
