In order to expose our young learners to global collaboration we at DPS Varanasi, Nashik & Lava Nagpur,India decided to initiate a project that builds cultural understanding, communication skills, knowledge and awareness of the wider world. We are trying to provide ample amount of opportunities so that our learners learn to ACT LOCALLY AND THINK GLOBALLY!
