El rol de las escuelas en la creación de un mundo mejor
Las escuelas son los pilares de nuestra sociedad; el mundo confía en las escuelas para preparar a los niños para el futuro, y empoderarles para crear un mundo mejor. Las escuelas y los educadores del presente están reevaluando su rol en el siglo 21, y redefiniendo su propósito como agentes de cambio. Los centros educativos no solo tienen la responsabilidad de crear sociedades mejores educando a sus estudiantes, pero también de mejorar significativamente las habilidades académicas y el bienestar de sus estudiantes.
Redes de escuelas primarias y secundarias

That is where the Global Schools Program comes in and helps us to strengthen the school ecosystem and beyond.”
