Social action

Inspire social responsibility with educational materials that encourage students to actively engage in positive societal change. Students work collaboratively to develop a future vision for their community and present their ideas. Based on feedback, they then work together to design, plan and implement a project from their community vision. The social action created can be used to engage your school or the wider community.
