ABOUT PROJECT KNOW THYSELF INTERNATIONAL
What?
Project Know Thy Self (PKTS) is an enriched creative and innovative programme designed to transform lives of children in primary, secondary and tertiary level and to be able to face the challenges of the world.
Why?
Education is meant to help solve societal issues to make the world a better place. Learning is all about Knowledge and understanding of the world and everyone has a special role to play to make it a better place. For the world to be a better place it is important that everyone knows who they are. Knowing who you are and the world around you is a great form of education. It is about preparing children for the future.
For our world to be a better place, schools have a significant role to play. Schools must not just educate the minds of children but remember to design a curriculum to educate their hearts.
“Know Thyself” is about knowing who you are; where you come from; your history; understanding that you have a destiny; knowing and understanding your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
This is important to every individual. How this is transferred to an individual and how the individual takes it determines the present and future of every person. This helps the child and adult to make the best choices for themselves and the community. It helps one to understand others’ religion, culture, background and why people behave in a certain way.
