Leonie, 2017 award recipient
"The Award meant I had the financial support to explore a new paradigm of schooling and learning in Oaxaca. The perspectives I gained are invaluable. I left with an expanded idea of what it means to create a space for learning outside my cultural, social and linguistic context."
Jannika, 2018 award recipient
