Hi Alvan,

Thanks for your edifying panel presentation at Stanford's "Africa Table - Engaging Africa" - https://sgs.stanford.edu/events/africa-table-engaging-africa-broadening-perspectives-cas-anniversary-roundtable - on May 25. It was nice to talk with you afterward especially. Here's the post of you I mentioned - https://plus.google.com/+ScottMacLeodWorldUniversity/posts/BsVLV3f7vhD - with your recent Stanford talk "Defining the Humanities: Medical - Humanities" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a5WYClw3dw - and with a few beginning related World University and School links to give you an idea of how WUaS works as a wiki. Anyone can start a wiki subject (academic or creative) in any language, and WUaS would check if there is any related MIT OCW or Yale OYC, and people could teach to these subjects in a 4 minute Youtube for example.

And here's WUaS's Creative Commons' licensed Nigeria World University and School -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nigeria - not yet in any Nigerian language (besides English if this is one). World University and School, which is like CC Wikipedia (in ~300 languages) with best STEM CC OpenCourseWare (accrediting on CC MIT OCW in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC) is developing free online accrediting major CC universities in all countries' main languages (offering free CC MIT OCW in 7 languages and Yale OYC-centric BA/BS, Ph.D., Law, M.D. and I.B. degrees), on the one hand, and wiki schools in all 7,943+ languages for open teaching and learning, on the other hand, and would like to develop one main platform and information technologies in CC Wikidata/Wikibase/Wikipedia with artificial intelligence, machine learning and machine translation.

And, since you're a M.D., here's the beginning Medical School at World University and School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Medical_School - which WUaS is also planning with online Hospital in all countries' main and official languages in Africa, by way of example.

I just wanted to get in touch and connect via email. (And perhaps I'll loop in Jim Ferguson and Laura Hubbard and others at a later point about some of this as well).

Nice to meet you.

Best,

Scott
