War survivor Mariatu Kamara speaks for children at risk in conflict
Her story shows 'the devastation conflict has on children's lives but also the power of the human spirit.'
Talking from the heart and personal experience, she makes a powerful impression on groups she addresses in Canada, the United States, and elsewhere.
David Hunt saves lives by teaching swimming in Cambodia
Drowning is the top cause of death for children in Cambodia over the age of 1, according to a recent report.
This school year he introduced a lifeguard training program at the iCAN British International School in Phnom Penh, where he works. The 30 teenagers in his class learned how to rescue someone using a rope, administer first aid, and retrieve and resuscitate an unconscious victim. They also know what to do if a boat capsizes, and how to help without endangering themselves.
MY DIFFERENCES
Share in this blog your own experience about making differences or those you would like to make in the future.
DIFFERENCE MAKERS IN THE WORLD
You can let us know people all around the world that make differences in their ordinary lives. They can be people from your own town or country, even your neighbours. They may be also people from the news or the Internet.
INTRODUCTION
The aim of this blog is to make students be aware about the fact that every single person in the world can be a difference maker. It's easy to take everything at face value and assume we are just one person and cannot possibly make a real change. But, what if you could make a change? What if something you do or say could make a difference in somebody's life? It is possible!
