The 9 11 London Project is a new educational charity which has been set up to ensure that the legacy of 9/11 is one that builds hope from tragedy.
Our mission is to develop, out of the horror of the events of 11th September 2001, an educational programme for schools, devoted to a proper understanding of what happened; and thereby help to reduce the possibilities of any similar act in the future.
Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Education
In a world riven by conflict, we all need deeper knowledge and greater understanding if human lives and human dignity are to be protected. 9/11 was a unique moment of evil which shocked our whole world. We all need to know more about the events, causes and consequences of 9/11; and the 9/11 Education programme aims to address this by focusing on building understanding, encouraging intercultural dialogue and developing the critical thinking skills of young people. I commend it to any school.
