Teaching for social change is a pedagogical approach that aims to empower students with the knowledge, skills, and critical thinking abilities needed to address societal issues and contribute positively to their communities. In today’s rapidly changing world, education plays a crucial role in shaping not only the minds of future generations but also the direction of our society. It is an approach that seeks to empower students to become active, informed, and compassionate global citizens who can contribute positively to addressing pressing social issues.

Teaching for social change is not just a pedagogical approach; it’s a commitment to shaping a more equitable, inclusive, and compassionate world through the power of learning.
