Join the Voices of Future Generations Teacher Champion Programme

Teachers play a crucial role in shaping young minds and inspiring the next generation to build a better future. The Voices of Future Generations (VoFG) Teacher Champion Programme celebrates educators who nurture young writers and instil a passion for sustainability through storytelling.

To honour their dedication, the VoFG Teacher Champion Awards acknowledge outstanding teachers who support the VoFG education programmes. By fostering purposeful storytelling and guiding students in exploring sustainability themes, these educators drive meaningful change. 

Teachers can win cash prizes, certificates, and media recognition while enhancing their professional development

Being part of the Teacher Champion Programme offers numerous professional growth opportunities, including workshops, networking events, and enriching discussions with fellow educators. Participants can also win cash rewards ranging from AED 3,000 to AED 10,000, certificates of achievement, media recognition, and professional development opportunities. These prestigious awards celebrate teachers’ hard work and enhance their impact in the educational community.

The journey to becoming a VoFG Teacher Champion begins with the VoFG We Write Programme, which equips teachers with essential tools and resources. This initiative offers adventure story-writing techniques, insights into the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and strategies to nurture young literary talents. Participants join a vibrant community of passionate readers, writers, and storytellers, fostering collaboration and creativity.

Register for the VoFG We Write Programme and empower students to explore sustainability through creative storytelling

To become eligible for the awards, teachers need to register their interest in the We Write Programme and enrol a minimum of 30 students aged 8-12 years old to the competition on the website.
