Educating For Humanity: Rethinking the Purposes of Education

At a time of profound crises around the world, when social justice, peace, democracy and the environment seem under increasing threat, the promise of "a world for all" seems a viable aspiration for education. Ample evidence from many schools today, and dating back throughout the last century, prove that the purpose of educating young people to develop character, compassion, purpose and commitment is integral with the mastery of intellectual skills and life competencies. Schooling, without a doubt, can play a monumental part in the development of the personal values people take with them to the world. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, "if you don't know where you're going, you'll probably get someplace else." Educational policy directions over the last twenty years have veered far away from the important work of educating for humanity. This book makes a powerful appeal to revisit educational purpose in light of what is most fundamental and important to human beings everywhere. The authors address timely issues such as high stakes testing, school choice, and privatization of education in looking beyond these measures to new approaches to educational excellence.

Through courage, wisdom and unshakable faith in God, a peace-maker from Burundi, Central Africa, helped change the course of his nation at a time of horrific ethnic violence between the Hutu and Tutsi ethnic groups in 1993-1994. Prosper Ndabishuriye's story of standing in front of guns to protect his team members is deeply moving and inspiring. A National Director of Campus Crusade for Christ, Prosper and youth he recruited devised an ingenious strategy by forming teams of men from all ethnic groups to help warring Hutu and Tutsi villagers return to their lands, forgive one another and find peace as they were helped to rebuild their homes. Since 1993, Prosper's organization-Youth in Reconstruction of the World in Destruction, or www.jrmd.org) has built over 3,200 homes for Burundians displaced by the war. This story recounts his partnership with author Mike Seymour and their AfricaAmericaExchange educational project connecting American and Burundian youth around themes of peace, compassion and making the world a better place. Prosper's most recent project is a school and orphanage. www.jrmd.org
