Additional Information

THE GREAT GENERATION IS A CATALYST FOR POSITIVE CHANGE : WE NURTURE AND ACCELERATE HUMAN POTENTIAL We inspire profound change in the systems and processes that surround us: we empower people to tackle the challenges of the 21st century. We believe it is individuals and communities learning and acting together that releases untapped potential to make the most of our resources: people and the planet. We work across society, across sectors and across continents to deliver experiential learning programmes that are transformational for everyone involved.   We create positive change in 3 ways: •Mentoring and advising community-based organisations in the developing world to tackle extreme poverty   •Delivering experiential learning programmes to students and professionals focused on building skills and knowledge to shape positive change   •Managing action-based projects on-the-ground  where students, professionals and local communities collaborate to solve critical needs revealed in the mentoring and advise process
