Always take time to debrief service projects to help youth understand issues and make connections. Infuse service into the school curriculum so students address world concerns through classes. Sponsor school-wide emphases on particular world concerns. Discuss and become involved in global issues in youth programming. Through trips, speakers, service projects, and simulations, make world issues personally relevant to youth.
Youth care about other people's feelings.
Model mutual respect in the family. Do not tolerate put-downs. Stress cooperation over competition. Teach students skills in conflict resolution. Use roll plays and other techniques to help youth see issues from other perspectives.
