We want to help students answer the question ‘What’s the best way for me to improve the world?’. Our program presents global issues such as world poverty, animal welfare, climate change, and possible future catastrophes like nuclear proliferation and harmful artificial intelligence. Students learn how to analyse these issues through science, ethics, discussion, and critical thinking, and how to tackle them by fundraising for outstanding charities and exploring high-impact career paths.
The first level can be used as a stand-alone introduction, and groups can then continue through the following levels 1-5 and beyond. The program can be used in lessons, clubs, or tutor time. The program is cross-curricular and is particularly relevant to Philosophy & Ethics, Citizenship, Careers, and charity fundraising.
