Skills
Perspective Taking: The ability to understand another person’s perspective and see the world through another person’s eyes is beneficial for all forms of social interactions and relationships.
Respectful communication: The ability to actively listen and communicate respectfully with others, especially when disagreeing that can help students build stronger relationships as well as deepen learning during discussions.
Working well with others is a foundational life skill for students to develop as they learn to navigate relationships in the classroom, at home, and eventually, in the workplace. When students cooperate, they must consider each other’s perspectives and experiences as they take on unique roles to achieve shared goals.
Critical thinking: Critical thinking helps students assess whether they have all the parts of a story and how to explore the difference between assumptions, perspectives, and facts with an open and curious mind.

Terrorism
International terrorism has become a global problem. Few societies feel entirely sheltered from the risk of an attack. A climate of fear, mistrust and xenophobia grows in response to these attacks.
Post Truth Politics
Truth does not mean what it used to, that we are entering a type of post-truth era where communications strategies supersede the variety of what is being discussed.

Singularity
Artificial intelligence implies that some areas of human activity can be outsourced by machines whereas others cannot. This leaves a space for schooling to develop those facets of humanity that are uniquely human and cannot be taken over by artificial intelligence. Human beings, including young people, appear increasingly attached to devices and dependent on them.
Mindfulness
In many so-called developed countries and most schools, human beings are complaining about high levels of stress as they carry out hyperactive lifestyles that can become unhealthy and compulsive.
Character
At the core of any response to the global challenges that face us is the question of a person’s character. The moral fibre that will determine the scope and style of their response to any given situation. Today’s world is fast changing and uncertain and therefore requires a particularly developed level of resolve and sturdiness.Characteristics can determine through three core concepts: discipline, ethics and emotional intelligence.
