What do the teachers say?

“Having observed the UBUNTU project with Belfast YMCA, I am thoroughly impressed by the impactful approach to education it offers. The interactive lessons not only captivate students but also infuse fun seamlessly into the learning process. The course content, centred on the history of Northern Ireland, serves as a foundation for fostering mutual respect, tolerance, and understanding among students.

The structured delivery of the course stands out as a testament to Belfast YMCA's commitment to providing a platform where students actively engage with the subject matter. Witnessing the way in which the program cultivates an environment conducive to meaningful discussions and perspectives, I've seen firsthand how it contributes to shaping well-rounded individuals who appreciate diversity and history.

Kudos to Belfast YMCA for orchestrating such a valuable programme that not only educates but also shapes the mindset of future generations towards building a more harmonious society."

"Peter and the YMCA team were fantastic.  Students were engaged from the start and were encouraged to explore complex issues in an accessible and interesting way.  Peter developed a strong rapport with the students and students felt confident about expressing their opinions.  Each session was thought-provoking and well paced so students were engaged throughout.  A very worthwhile course."
