  • UWC Dilijan: One Absolutely Happy School
    UWC Dilijan: one absolutely happy school Better to learn and understand other people when they differ from us more difficult than those who belong to the same community with us. But at the same time is much more useful: when we come into contact with representatives of other traditions and cultures, different mentality, understand the common and the differences between us — horizons inevitably expand, the mind becomes more flexible, leave prejudices and the tendency to stereotypical thinking. The result is much more than knowledge about how different countries celebrate the New year. The policy of multiculturalism, growing since the 1970s years in many countries of the world has always been through understanding the diversity of cultures, identities, points of view — to come to an understanding of unity and wholeness. And thereby reduce tension in the society, to reduce the number of conflicts to reach the realization that any two people, no matter how they differed from each other, are part of humanity. And, therefore, their culture can interact, intertwine, to become part of human culture. Of course, education can become a powerful driving force in the process of bringing people and cultures. This thesis represents the mission of the UWC, or the United World Colleges founded in 1962 and is today recognised around the world. UWC to date is 17 schools and colleges on four continents and more than 60 000 graduates. UWC Atlantic College (Wales, UK) Source: uwcmahindracollege.org Netherlands and Swaziland, India and Singapore, Costa Rica, and Norway — in all these countries there are institutions and UWC. In 2014, the first UWC College appeared in the former Soviet Union, in Transcaucasia, midway between the capitals of Armenia and Georgia, in the Armenian city of Dilijan.
