Serious Request 2015 - Supporting the Red Cross for the Right to Education of children and youth in conflict areas

UWC Maastricht decided to embark in the Serious Request of the Red Cross this year to raise awareness about the challenges to the Right of Education of thousands of children and youth around the world who are also experiencing war or conflict in their countries.

This was an excellent opportunity as well for MYP5 students to design their own actions to fundraise for the Red Cross and other MYP students and staff also came up with their own ideas to raise awareness while having fun: UWC Maastricht with Serious Request 2015

Their learning outcomes have been that working as a team is not always easy because self-management requires planning and effort, that lower number of members in the team help to manage it better, that internal communication is something important which needs to be taken seriously to inform all aspects of the process and finally, that the will and commitment to a project is more than 50% of the success of that project.
