Q&A    Awards    Bio & Pics    What I stand for    Team up    Help me HELP PEOPLE

I’ve spent my past 20 years among the finest young and adult changemakers and global experts, education innovators and wisdom keepers on the planet. I’ve seen the UNITED NATIONS Decade of Education for Sustainable Development unfold on six continents, and harvested best practices in multi-lingual media, recognized with prestigious global awards, multiple UNESCO Status and board memberships.

I know how young changemakers, teachers and caring citizens succeed in making “creating a good world for all” part of learning culture at school, and in their daily lives – changing lives, laws and industries at record scale.

And now, I am bringing all this knowledge and a global network of badass hero*ine friends to YOU, your city, and the schools of the planet – to join, support and implement these solutions and tricks for creating the world we wish to see, for making life at school awesome, and even life at work – together with today’s hero*ines!

90+% of youth agree “this should be at all schools”, and you may too.
So, check out the gems at offer, use them, learn to spark magic, and let’s team up!

Here is what I know
The solutions for a world of peace, bliss and abundance for all exist, by the thousands!

They are implemented by ordinary people (not governments or billionaires, those are greedy, uneducated, visionless egoists) of kind genius acting as youth leaders, social entrepreneurs, citizen groups and city councils. Their solutions are so  impactful, and their character is so splendid that they are showered with awards, celebrated in media, recognized as hero*ines and ultimate role models, booked as speakers at schools, and their stories are read out at bedtime. And this tells us – if they can, if their school can, if their city council can, if those teens can – then everybody everywhere can. Many of those solutions have already spread to thousands of places, to national level. And if you envision a tapestry of 100+ solutions implemented in your home city and region, the vision of the new good civilization manifests, common sense, down to Earth, available right now. People just need to know of these myriads of solution, get inspired, comprehend the simple steps, and get a little support on demand.

That is what I know. That is what I want.

I also see how youth leadership at schools is the ultra high impact gamechanger for upgrading an entire generation. And I see how with teenage changemakers at the centre, also adult generations can get activated for able, active, caring citizenship and upgrading their professions. That is what I want.

It’s not only what I want, but truly, it is humanity’s grand unifying dream – a good world for all – and if you think about it, we can make it happen. Focus on your region. That’s where stuff happens. Team up with other regions. That’s how stuff happens globally.

Have a good look at what I have to show you. And follow my guidance. It gives you a running start with flying banners. And then, freestyle, and pick resources and support from a big global stack as it fits your moment.

Now back to me, so you get an idea how I can help you achieve your dreams for people and planet.

At am Indian school, they ask new students: “Why have you come to this planet at this special time?”

I want to see real big planetary change.

And that’s why I had to come up with quite a few things to help everybody make it happen.

 

AUTHOR

I want that all kids today grow up with teen hero spirit of Youth We Can, with access to solutions, action and support. Activating today’s young and adult generations, requires to make hero*ine spirit omni-present in homes, schools, workplaces, public spaces and media.

TEACHER

I know how schools of all types succeed + how youth, teachers and citizens have made ‘creating a good world for all’ part of learning culture at thousands of schools in North America, with ripple effects in their communities.

  • I provide resources, guidance and partners to fill common methods we all use – classroom subjects, student clubs, projects and partnerships – with hero*ine role models, solutions, ‘live’-meets, ‘high impact* projects with WORLD CLASS CHANGEMAKERS. If teens at 1,000s of schools can do it, youth everywhere can.

It strongly upgrades learning culture, responds to needs in escalating crisis, boosts intrinsic motivation, empowers students’ self-organized learning, and has huge impact on people, planet and the citizenry. Without need for extra time, training or finance.
