About us - or About You?Out of a dedicated time set aside for young people to explore ideas about their environments and communities, came a series of questions that developed into a process. That process has the power to allow communities to change their approach to education from their own cultural perspectives enabling their young people to have a better chance of success and happiness in the future.

Established in 2017?Perhaps it is less important who we are and more for you to ask: Who are you? Can you build trust in your community? Are you helping improve communication? Can you lead or help lead or support someone to lead change in your approach to education so that everyone in your school gets more out of education?
|
What Should Our Goal be?If we have found by following a simple process, we can improve the approach to education in our school, shouldn't our goal be to share that with every school community? If the process helps you define and use your own cultural perspectives, wouldn't it be wrong for a school community not to try it? Our goal is for every school to try to improve itself by reflecting on a few deep searching questions and then to take action to help themselves and others.

We're Not the Only Ones - We have you!This movement is not about us - it's about you and what you can do with your community. It's about asking the right questions in the right way and dealing with the answers you receive respectfully and constructively until the solutions gradually emerge. What sort of education do young people really need? Your community has the wisdom to discover this because we all share a common humanity - now is the time to find it and use it. Join us and make a difference.
