Primarily this service is for middle and high school students, although it does say that it serves students 13 through 30. I like the idea behind this because it enables students of either the same age, or more aged students to share viewpoints and opinions across different cultures. Their mission statement's goal is to "...enable a collaborative learning community which provides youth with access to global opportunities, cross-cultural connections and meaningful participation in decision-making." The idea here is to get students talking while they are still students, and maybe quite possibly before they become entangled in the politics of whatever country they live. By promoting this type of cross-cultural communication, maybe this group can make things better in the world tomorrow.
