“The mission of blue planet writers room is to lead groups of students from different countries in creative international projects. Our writers room spans the globe, and in this virtual space between cultures, we strive to help students develop their skills in creativity, global awareness, and the making and sharing of stories. We seek to increase their tolerance and celebration of diversity, to involve them in the advancement of international cooperation, and to help them realize that despite our differences, we are all connected, creative, and human.”

“At blue planet, we use technology to connect groups of local students with groups of students in other countries to engage in story exchanges about their lives and cultures. Teaching writers and teaching artists lead the students in workshops where creative writing and the arts are used to establish common ground that lets the students communicate with and learn about each other across cultural and geographic borders.”
