Testimonials

The Generation Global pilot in Rwanda has laid a solid foundation for promoting dialogue, critical thinking, and open-mindedness. The skills developed will have a lasting impact, empowering the next generation of Rwandan to engage thoughtfully with global issues, foster empathy and respect, and contribute positively to their communities.
Dr. Nelson Mbarushimana, DG Rwanda Education Board
As a teacher, I see a lot of positive changes in my student's behaviour. They have become more tolerant toward each other and they look at the world around them more positively. They have developed a great degree of empathy.
Teacher, Ukraine
When I joined Generation Global, I lacked self-confidence but soon I witnessed a remarkable change in my personality. Coming across people with different thoughts, values, religions, languages, and cultures is bound to broaden your mind and make you see the world with an entirely new vision.
Student, India
Deliberately teaching students the skills to dialogue will help create a strong constituency that reaches out to persons of different cultures and faiths. I endorse this free resource for use in the Philippines as it can help create a culture of understanding.
Undersecretary, Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process in the Philippines
The driving purpose of the Generation Global programme is to use tech connectivity to reach as many students as we can and give them the ability and capacity to think in an open-minded way towards those that have different backgrounds and beliefs.
The Rt Hon Tony Blair
After a 2 day workshop teachers have reported the enthusiastic engagement of their students in Essentials of Dialogue and after their first video conference, reported their students to be highly excited by the experience.
