International activity

Under the Better World Campaign we have launched a number of international projects which extend the reach of the Campaign globally, enabling BT to make a real difference to the lives of tens of thousands of young people around the world.

BT Education

We have been instrumental in linking schools in the UK with schools world-wide, through the BT education programme, and through other projects.

Initiatives in India

We are providing education support to two schools, and a phone-based information service, (Lifelines), that supplies vital information to poor rural farming communities.

Inspiring Young Minds

This is a three year strategic programme in partnership with UNICEF, where BT is investing £1.5 million into projects in South Africa, Brazil and China.

International Recognition

In April our Campaign received international recognition when BT and ChildLine were jointly awarded 'Listener of the Year 2008' for 22 years of listening and supporting children. Nominations are made from around the world for this presitigious award, and past winners have been U.S. Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.
