In 2003, we developed a partnership called Facing the Past - Transforming our Future to provide teachers with resources for exploring South Africa’s past.
With our partner, Corrymeela, we help teachers address the violent past and divisions within Northern Irish society.
Since 2007, we have worked to help promote deeper cross-cultural engagement among educators in China and within our global network.
