To work according to the curriculums we follow as well as Futuraskolan’s vision, values and promises. These projects will make concrete our vision about developing world citizens, PER as well as provide a structure to keep our promise of children and students who are:
Visible (through individual/personal involvement with the help of an enquiry-based learning approach)
Challenged (by stepping outside of our comfort zone)
Successful (by gaining an understanding that their personal engagement in these projects can make a difference on a global scale)

Student involvement:
Younger children and students:
Community exchanges locally, nationally and through “locally based travelling” (VR or Skype)
Older students:
Community exchanges locally, nationally and through “locally based travelling” (VR or Skype).
