We bridges the gap between local and global society through local commitment and international collaboration
Brighter Smiles aim to bridge the gap between local and
global society through local commitment and international collaboration. We
wish to contribute to the development of thriving communities in Norway and
internationally.
We characterize vibrant and thriving local communities people
feel economic safe-, social belonging- and the sense of committing to something
bigger than themselves. We believe in changemakers that aspire to qualities of
moral leadership.
Brighter Smiles strongly focuses on youth participation, active
citizens, community involvement, society, politics, science and sharing a
culture of evidence-based practices.
We believe that education and training and lifelong learning must be developed through forging long-lasting cooperation and sharing of good practices both at home and abroad. Through international exposure and cooperation, learners are provided with valuable perspectives that can raise awareness in the broadest sense. Social- and working life has an increasingly multicultural character, and the knowledge, competence and skills that increased internationalization can contribute to is more important than ever.
