At this moment there are more than 6 billion people on the planet! It's hard to picture so many people at one time but what if we imagine the whole world as a village of just 100 people?
Based on the award-winning book by David J. Smith, If the World Were a Village is a wonderful introduction to the realities of our global situation. It delivers an important metaphor to children - imagine the whole world as a village of just 100 people...what will it be like? Using a 'world-in-miniature' approach, this programme opens our eyes to a wider view of our planet and its human inhabitants, telling us who we are, where we live, how fast we are growing, what languages we speak, what religions we practise and more.
So come and learn about our global village. What you find may surprise you!
