The Sharing the Dream student-led webcast series brings the excitement of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games to classrooms across Canada and the world. Each webcast explores youth issues related to culture, sustainability, sports & healthy living, Olympism, Paralympism and global citizenship.

The next webcast, "Promoting Peace One School at a Time", takes place Thursday February 4th from 8:30 to 9:30 am PST. It features Greg Mortenson, co-founder of the Central Asia Institute, founder of Pennies For Peace, co-author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Three Cups of Tea, and author of the bestseller Stones into Schools. In 2009, Mortenson received Pakistan’s highest civil award, Sitara-e-Pakistan (“Star of Pakistan”) for his dedicated humanitarian effort to promote education and literacy in rural areas for fifteen years.
