Review for Institute for Humane Education, Surry, ME, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

It all started with a book title that caught my attention online : Zoe Weil's "The World Becomes What We Teach"- something about it resonated with me deeply. It was as if a spark had been lit, and I found myself thinking about it long after I had closed the computer and out of the blue, my friend Akash Patel contacted me with IHE and its Solutionary Micro-credential Program. The more I read about IHE and its philosophy, the more convinced I became that this was the direction I wanted to take in my teaching career.
IHE's focus on connecting education with issues of social justice, sustainability, and animal protection felt like the perfect extension of my own values and work in Environmental Education and Global Citizenship. The idea of empowering students to think critically and ethically about the world around them and their role in it was incredibly inspiring.
As I immersed myself in IHE's resources, program, and training, my passion for humane education grew. I wanted to share this transformative approach with others, especially in Argentina, where I felt it could make a real difference. I was offered to become a local coach for IHE, and my journey reached a new level.
Now, I have the privilege of working with my own students, guiding them to become thoughtful, compassionate, and active global citizens. I also have the incredible opportunity to train other educators, sharing the principles of humane education and helping them bring this approach into their own classrooms. Seeing the impact of these ideas on teachers and students alike is deeply rewarding.
From a simple book title that sparked my curiosity to my current role as a local coach, my journey with IHE has been transformative. It has not only enriched my own teaching practices but has also allowed me to contribute to a broader movement of education that promotes a more just, humane, and sustainable world

Review for Take Action Global, Clearwater, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Heartfelt gratitude and admiration for the exceptional work this organization has done in helping me incorporate climate education and global goals into my school curriculum. The impact the projects have made on my students and the community as a whole is truly remarkable, and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication and commitment to these important causes.

This organization's efforts have been instrumental in raising awareness about climate change and empowering our students to become environmentally conscious individuals. Through their valuable resources, workshops, and guidance, we have been able to follow a comprehensive and engaging curriculum that not only educates our students about the challenges our planet faces but also inspires them to take action.

TAG's professionalism and expertise is exemplary. The depth of knowledge and passion they bring to the field of climate education is truly inspiring. Jen and Koen and all the team are absolutely amazing!
Hope you can join us to see this is true!
