I regard it as the foremost task of education to ensure the survival of these qualities: an enterprising curiosity, an undefeatable spirit, tenacity in pursuit, readiness for sensible self-denial and above all, compassion.
I believe in two powerful forces in this world, love and education. I discovered both in UWC.
The sense of idealism and a purposeful life really makes the UWC experience unique and its impact life-long.
