Our aims are to encourage and develop educational approaches and methods which will: enable people to recognise in their own lives the links between north and south and to acknowledge how much we can learn from one another; increase understanding of the economic, social, cultural, political, environmental and spiritual forces which shape the relationship between North and South and which affect us all; enable people to achieve a more just and sustainable world, in their schools and communities as well as more widely, in which power and resources are more fairly shared by all.
