Move This World represented at emerging innovators boot camp
Sara, a life-long performance dancer and mover, was a Fulbright Scholar in Bogotá, Colombia when she wrote, developed, and implemented an innovative peace education/conflict resolution programme.
In Bogotá, she learned to fuse her passions for international development, peacebuilding, education and dance while designing and leading the original Move This World curriculum in Colombian elementary schools.
Move This World
Move This World, formerly known as Dance4Peace, uses creative movement to address and transform conflict, violence, and bullying in communities worldwide. Their holistic approach engages students, families, educators, administrators, and communities with an innovative, award-winning, evidence-based curriculum.
Move This World works with partners across four continents to measurably improve social and emotional skills through movement.
Emerging innovators boot camp
"The strength of our global society depends on the work of passionate innovators who can respond to the needs of our communities," said Timothy J. McClimon, president of American Express Foundation. "These 45 young entrepreneurs have channeled their empathy and commitment to create solutions that are currently changing lives throughout North America."
The two-day Boot Camps in New York City, Toronto, and Mexico City are part of the American Express Emerging Innovators campaign, which aims to accelerate and highlight the ideas of tomorrow's leaders through training, mentorship, promotion, and collaboration.
