Joann mcpike om varfor hon grundade think global school
Joann McPike is a travel photographer and the founder of Think Global School.
A New Zealand native and a current Bahamas resident, McPike has lived in seven countries and photographed more than 100. In 2008, she published the photography book THINK. All proceeds from the project were donated to charity.
In 2010, McPike founded THINK Global School, an independent non-profit high school that travels the world, giving students the opportunity to study in 12 different international cities over the course of 12 trimester terms.
McPike’s photographic work has been featured on the BBC website, the Nomade Arts Gallery in Miami, U.S.A. and the West Hill Gallery in Nassau, Bahamas. To commemorate the opening of THINK Global School in 2010, she created an outdoor photo installation that accompanied the school during its residencies in Stockholm, Sydney, and Beijing. The exhibit was placed in prominent pedestrian areas and featured documentary style photos from the THINK coffee table book, celebrating the themes of tolerance, diversity, and self-reflection that inspire McPike’s school in its unique mission.
