Hot Topics

The World Wise Window focuses on a new topic each month, bringing educators stories with lesson plans from post-Tsunami Sri Lanka and Jordan to China and New Orleans. The Window examines global issues and cross-cultural understanding through folk tales, videos, slide shows, photos, and Volunteer-written narratives that come from a Peace Corps Volunteer's unique perspective on daily life in countries around the world.
