Sunil and the NSCF are involved in a lot of different chess initiatives. In this interview, GM Cristian Chirila asks FM Sunil Weeramantry, our Founder and Exec Director, about many of these interests. He of course speaks about his relationship with GM Hikaru Nakamura, but also about chess in the curriculum, our book Great Moves: Learning Chess Through History, and about communicating the value of chess to parents. We think it’s a great interview. What do you think?
