Introduction Time is about... • Young people worldwide • Sustainable school links • Access to new technology • A virtual market place • Educational activities • Current world issues

Time aims to: • Set up a network of schools, organisations and youth, working on global citizenship and cultural diversity • Create a flexible, electronic learning environment for intercultural learning activities • Provide a digital forum to share ideas and proposals on the role of youth in contributing to a better world

Hola Time We are very pleased to be participating in the Time Project this year and are looking forward to building links with more like minded youth from around the planet. Thank you Time for this opportunity.Peru This was a terrific project unlike anything I have ever experienced in my 10 years of teaching and something I am dying to do again....hopefully dont have to wait 50 more years to do it again.Canada My pupils have worked hard to get in contact not only with there twinning schools but also with more than 30 other schools, sending their opinion of Human Rights, asking question about others´opinions.
