Educating World Citizens
This project is about learning to harness our powers
of perception in ways that allow us to expand our
own consciousness so as to become more
balanced, altruistic, appreciative of difference, able
to hold complexity, accommodating of new
information, and inspired to promote peace.

transform and transcend above the
obstacles we face in life and to really
see deeper into the beauty of life that
surrounds us wherever we go - that is
only if we are mindful of it and if we
dare to open up our eyes…”

“In the future, centers of learning will
teach at least one thing we do not teach
today: the art of self-discovery. There is
nothing more fundamental in education.
We turn our students from our universities
knowing how to give answers, but not
how to ask questions.”
