= Overview =

This wiki is dedicated to raise awareness in students on global issues that affect them now and into the future. It uses as a starting point J. F. Rischard's 2002 book, **High Noon: 20 Global Problems, 20 Years to Solve Them**

As a starting point Grade 7 students from Qatar Academy in Doha will work in teams to add content for each issue. In the future students will add, clarify, update and extend to reflect a growing understanding that builds on prior knowledge. It is hoped that action will arise from such understanding and that we can report on this here and on our [|Ning].

Students from other schools are most welcome to contribute and collaborate.
