Intent:

To provide an accessible way for people to understand, use and share the ABCD in their settings. Our intention is to write motivate and inspire anyone, anywhere through sharing stories that shows how small things that we do every day can change one’s life circumstances when each one of us recognizes the gifts and talents that we have and how we can sue them effectively to achieve our aspirations. The intention is also to show the power of sharing knowledge, the power of connections or networks.

Purpose:

To maximise technology and co-create a multilingual and widely accessible e-book to share stories, tools, knowledge, and experiences emerging in and from applying ABCD principles in different social, cultural, and thematic contexts across the globe (to showcase and offer multiple options of what it means to ‘do ABCD’).
