It is the United Nations global teaching and learning project: In these days of tough competition, it is not enough for the students to restrict themselves with the bookish knowledge of their subjects; the understanding of the global affairs, the value of the human rights, the struggle of the people with poverty and hunger, the prosperity of peace etc. should also be a part of their knowledge and learning.
Such an all-round understanding must be the most important thing for the students, who are going to be our future leaders, scientists, technicians, engineers etc.
