Newsletter No 7/2022 - Values and Skills for Life: Education Serving Young People
Author: Lucy How López
Over the course of our lifetimes, we grow and develop, ideally on all planes, physically, intellectually, psychologically, spiritually, emotionally and socially. The foundations are laid in our youth, all being well, and in the decades that follow, we may have or create ourselves the spaces to hone and practise our skills, to extend and deepen our knowledge and experience, and to continue to learn new skills, growing and adapting as our lives unfold.
While the skills and the expertise needed to be able to do our work well may change, there are some skills that are constant. These include the key skills related to ethics, to developing our critical and values-based thinking and decision-making.
