Description: This thesis is the theoretical basis for an international development project to be carried out in Tanzania during July and August 2007. The recently completed St. Gaspar Primary School will be transformed into a model "Healthy School" which uses a Global Education curriculum, complete with curriculum expectations, teacher guides and student workbooks. A number of contentious health issues within the St. Gaspar community, such as female genital mutilation and HIV/AIDS and related discrimination, will be addressed by the school's curriculum. The implications of projects involving international cooperation and solidarity between the developed and developing world are considered in the following pages. This project will only be a starting point in a long process of revitalization and growth in a community that will transform these resources to use curriculum as a form of nation building.
