World Heritage Education
The St. George’s Foundation is interested in expanding our students’ educational experiences. We want to encourage and support local schools (including Bermuda College) to take a leading role in World Heritage Education, a UNESCO programme that gives young people a chance to learn and engage in the protection of the world’s natural and cultural heritage. It is our operating assumption that World Heritage Sites are ideally positioned to help young people explore diversity, global citizenship and their unfolding sense of place on a global stage. Pride instilled in our students when they contemplate the significance of Bermuda’s distinctive historical heritage is a central ingredient that will expand their sense of what it means to be a Bermudian in a global village.
Thanks to our website sponsor, ABC (Advocates for Bermuda’s Children) we are able to use new media and technology to educate, enrich and empower the next generation with tools to thrive in our complex, multi-ethnic and global community.
