<\/div>[vc_column_text]Under our overarching theme, Big Changes Start Small, we are offering 4 projects and inviting students, aged 5 -18 to participate. Our theme this year offers a diverse range of projects that are based on United Nations <\/span>SDG 3, 9, 12 & 15<\/b>. These projects are designed to enable students to showcase their varied skills and unique sense of purpose which is most meaningful to them.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Beaconhouse Global Projects aims to encourage people to start making small changes to ensure long-term and positive impacts on the well-being of our planet. At Beaconhouse, we believe that every big change starts with a series of tiny acts and that the most impactful change starts with you. Each of these environmental acts adds up. We hope our students will create history by taking small incremental steps towards a big change for the betterment of this world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We want to make environmentalism as accessible as possible by offering small ways to make a big, collective, positive impact. Things that offer a sustainable option for every item, celebrating the small acts of environmentalism we each do in our day-to-day lives, and creating a judgement-free space for aspiring environmentalists.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” disable_custom_paddings_tablet=”true” disable_custom_paddings_mobile=”true” el_id=”rational_text” css=”.vc_custom_1632384279413{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Rationale<\/strong><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\u00a0Over the last two decades the terms \u201csocial entrepreneurship and Learner Agency\u201d has emerged as a recognisable field in development work with young people. This growing interest began in the 1980s with the emergence of two schools of practice that aimed to invest in young people to promote positive social change and innovative solutions that can be sustained and replicated. (UNICEF: Adolescents and Civil Engagement: Social Entrepreneurship and Young People, 2007)<\/span><\/p>\n

Beaconhouse Global Projects aim to focus on social entrepreneurship in youth and highlight the importance of this approach in contributing towards the development of critical skills and competencies of young people to positively engage in society, exercise leadership and become involved in social change.<\/span><\/p>\n

Learner agency the important goal of students being active learners who are able to make their own choices based on their experiences. These students take action to fully participate in their learning to create new and meaningful opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Through global learning, we aim for students to become informed, open-minded, and responsible people who are attentive to diversity across the spectrum of differences. Additionally, the aim is for students to understand how their actions affect both local and global communities, and address the world\u2019s most pressing and enduring issues collaboratively and equitably<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” full_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1634710456930{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_id=”theme_portfolio”][vc_column]
