The
FLI Experience
Social
responsibility and humanitarian leadership are often seen as
fields separate from mainstream society. For lasting social
change and responsible democracy, we need humanitarian leaders
in all fields. Yet with limited resources and pressure to improve
test scores, schools increasingly feel constrained to focus
on narrow academic skills. Many youth disengage from school
or drop out entirely when they fail to see a connection between
classroom learning and real-world issues. As an accredited course,
FLI engages students by connecting the school experience to
their lives, enabling them to see that they matter and can make
a meaningful difference. As a greater number of young people
engage in the FLI experience, we are revolutionizing both education
and leadership on a grand scale.
