Student feedback

Comments from students attending GSF2010 events include:

 

"GSF makes you realise that making poverty history is possible through small steps you can take in your own community RIGHT NOW."  Jesse Hope, Lymm High School

"This was definitely a life-changing day."  Georgina Day, Bournemouth School for Girls

"I learned that my actions can easily affect people, not just near to me, but on the other side of the world."  Seamus Graham, Hull College 

"Today was a really eye-opening experience, and has left me thinking about how my actions affect the future and the power we have as a generation."  Saiqa Saruar, Holy Cross College

"I learnt a lot today. I knew global issues like education were important but I’d never really thought to campaign for them. I will definitely go back to my school and actively start campaigning for universal primary education. We can achieve this, and we will.Carys Jones-Williams, Radyr Comprehensive School

"The Global Student Forum provides an excellent opportunity for 16-19 year olds to speak out and be heard.  We will be listening carefully to what they think about the important issues facing us all as citizens of today's world."
