THE VIRTUES PROJECT
Courage, Equality, Compassion, Love, Responsibility, Honesty, Hope, Justice...
The Virtues Project is a character education programme endorsed by the United Nations and used in over 100 countries worldwide. It is still little-known in the UK and Tam is one of only a handful of Master Facilitators on these shores.
The project teaches individuals to recognise and acknowledge the virtues that exist within all human beings. By calling upon these in ourselves and each other, we learn to potentially transform communication and relationships, communities and culture.
The programme introduces 100 virtues (or 52 in a school setting), and the five strategies that facilitate their use in the most effective ways, for families, educators, businesses, organisations and communities.
