One World Youth Project

One World Youth Project is a global sister-school initiative, which connects middle and high schools in the United States with schools from around the world together in learning partnerships that emphasize cultural exchange, youth leadership, and community service. In addition to experiencing cultural exchange through internet message-board communication, pen pal letters, film, and monthly curriculum, youth also work directly with their sister-school on the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. Each sister-school pair chooses one of the goals to focus on and then over the course of the year designs and implements a collaborative service project that helps to meet this goal.
