One World Charity Challenge is coordinated by the One World Centre, Isle of Man.
The Challenge sets out to give Year 12 students a greater understanding of the developing world through researching the work of a charity working overseas. Students working in teams are challenged to choose a charity working overseas, which is either Manx registered or a small UK based charity. Students then research the work of the charity, interview representatives from the charity and advocate for their charity’s cause. They must put together a 10 – 12 minute multi-media presentation which examines the effectiveness of their charity, shows cultural understanding and looks at the impact the charity has had on someone’s life.
A prize fund is distributed between the selected charities based on the merits of the student presentations.
