Why human behavior is at the center of education
Dustin Eirdosh is a researcher in the Department of Comparative Cultural Psychology at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Psychology, in Leipzig, Germany and is the co-founder of the international educational development non-profit Global ESD.
