Team Le MANS (learning from Mother Teresa)

There will be no existence if we cannot coexist.  History has taught us that violence begets violence sooner or later.  What to do if the lawmakers refuse to change?  What to do if the changes are not coming quickly enough for us?  Great peace activists in the past have encountered the same conundrum.  What lessons did they learn that we must learn for ourselves and put into practice in today’s world?  How can we do better?  

Since July 1, teens from across the world have come together to research the idea of coexistence. Each team was assigned a peace & change movement led by thought leaders for their case study.  The students have dove deep into international understanding for this important global goal. Their proposals on how we can apply these skills in today's world are ready for your vote in the People's Choice Award category.
