Don’t Just be Savvy, be World Savvy!

In this increasingly diverse and globally connected world, global education and exchange opportunities are increasingly vital. Enter World Savvy, a national nonprofit that works with educators and community leaders for the past two decades that focuses on creating inclusive schools where young people effectively engage in activities that involve extensive problem solving, empathy, and higher order thinking skills. With this World Savvy support, students engage in real-world challenges and in their communities and across the globe. In effect, World Savvy effectively prepares young people to be “future ready” learners. since its founding in 2002, World Savvy has reached more than 808,000 students and nearly 7,000 educators in 45 states and 32 countries. Its programs make teaching and learning real, experiential, and relevant for a changing world. As a result, students acquire the kind of knowledge, skills, and dispositions that not only prepare them for college, career, and life in a global society, but help them identify as global citizens who are motivated to contribute to peace, justice, and sustainability for our world.
