About this Site
The production of A Different World: An Educational Tool Kit for Building Global Justice is a cooperative project between NGOs, government, educational institutions and high school teachers.
The goal is to help students develop the skills, knowledge and values they need to become responsible citizens in an increasingly interdependent world. This is achieved through units that use project-based learning and interactive classroom activities, fact sheets, handouts and resources on global themes.
Every effort has been made to provide accurate information and statistics; however, it is important to note the data is continually changing, and all information and statistics have been compiled from a variety of sources.
