• GYV Quotes

  Vinayak Balasubramenan, Participant says
  “I have been able to greatly capitalize on the experiences provided here. I was able to actively take part in various discussions, organize a ping-pong tournament, and even lead a peaceful protest for the rights of Tibetans and those in Darfur during the GYV Olympics. Through these opportunities, I was able to share my knowledge with the community, and to also learn about what it entails to be a leader.”

  Simon Norton, Vermont, U.S.; Program Director, World Learning’s Youth Peace Building Programs says
  “...I am giving a presentation this week entitled "Teaching Global Issues in Experiential, Multicultural, Classrooms", based on some of my research, but primarily based on my work these past two summers at the Global Youth Village.
  I think my time at Legacy has helped a lot of pieces come together for me - my work with leadership, cross-cultural communications, 'global pedagogy', global issues, and the ongoing wonderful challenge of translating my deep passions for the world into accessible, engaging, inspiring and empowering curricula and programs. This determination has come into clear focus these past few years.”
