Forewords from H.M. King Constantine and Justin Trudeau

“To illustrate how a young person's character can be built into a confident yet compassionate, ambitious yet agile human being, requires an insightful eye. Mark Zelinski delivers a profound account of Hahn-based institutions. This book is an essay about challenge, inspiration and service.”

- from the foreword by His Majesty King Constantine

"ONE SMALL FLAME: Kurt Hahn's Vision Of Education" brings focus to the rich diversity of growth opportunities that have manifested from the ideas and
ideals of one of the world's greatest educators. Hahn's visionary ideas are alive in the world today and in constant evolution through the action-based programmes that are so beautifully portrayed in this book.

To commemorate the 90th anniversary of Hahn's first school, Schule Schloss Salem, award-winning photographer Mark Zelinski traveled to more than 70 Roundsquare Schools, Outward Bound Centres, and United World Colleges worldwide to capture the human spirit at its most courageous and vulnerable moments. These Hahn-inspired organizations address compelling social and personal issues, promoting racial harmony, self-esteem, leadership qualities, and a committed compassion for others.

One Small Flame is a true-life story of courage and hope. Each day of the year in communities around the globe, thousands of students experience life-changing growth and engage in social and environmental service projects, charting new directions for a sustainable future. Millions have tasted the fruit of the educational seeds planted by Kurt Hahn. Millions more have felt the ripples of compassionate action from the students and alumni of these programmes. Most certainly, this is not just a story of hope. This is an epic.
