Hear from our teen participants!

“I got to learn so much more and understand so many different topics that I’m pretty sure will help me in the future. The most important thing that I learnt is to embrace differences and not let them become a barrier. Stuff like this should be taught in schools because it helps us in every aspect of our life.”

Trisha, teenager from India

Global Up Teen offers learners an opportunity to dive into global competence education. Participants can expect to learn more about themselves as cultural beings, hear from peers around the world and get their take on topics such as communication styles and conflict resolution skills. Learners will also uncover tools to allow them to cope with ambiguity, develop their empathy and active listening skills and how to effectively collaborate across differences to create lasting positive impact in their community and the world.
