Our world needs more teachers like Antanas Mockus
17 Mar 2008

This article is 4 years old but it's the first time I read it. Antanas Mockus is not the mayor of Bogota anymore (according to Wikipedia). Definitely inspirational... I wonder how the world would look like if policy-making followed Mockus' example!

(Thanks to my friend Onoufrios for forwarding)

Not sure if you read spanish, but after his failed presidential bid, Antanas started an organization called "Visionaries for Colombia" (http://www.visionariosporcolombia.com/)and I think he may be running for president again in 2009.
