Part of the Earth Treasury mission is to link schools around the world for educational and other purposes. The ideal situation is connecting schools in which all children at both ends have their own laptops, but we can make connections even if children have time-limited access to computers.

Some educational benefits:

  • Meeting people from another culture
  • Geography lessons
  • Learning languages
  • International collaborations on education projects
  • Creating international organizations on children's issues, education, environmental monitoring, and much more

After such relationships are well established, students getting business training can also think about whom to go into business with.
