Interguild is excited that our 2019 AGM will take place at the WE Global Learning Centre on Wednesday the 15th of May.
We extend our gratitude to Sean Mitchell, Director of Independent School Educational Partnerships and the team at WE Schools, for inviting us into to their global headquarters to learn how this Toronto based organisation has become a world leader in making change for good across the globe.
We invite you to join us for speaker Leysa Cerswell Kielburger’s presentation on “Promoting Well-being through Experiential Service Learning”.
What is Experiential Service Learning?
Children and youth are experiencing more issues related to mental health than ever before, we have an opportunity to transform the conversation around well-being and understand further how service learning is being infused into our schools, our families and our local and global communities.
Join the conversation around how innovative experiential service learning programs can engage parents, educators and group leaders to empower children and youth with skills, knowledge and motivation to bring positive change in the world.
