Make New Citizens of the World

Yan Yangchu(Y.C. Yen)'s theory of mass education is based on the combination of the Confucian idea that the people are the foundation and the Christ's philosophy of universal love. His theory took root and thrived in China in the 1920s, and was spread to and applied in the impoverished lands all around the world under the efforts of Yan Yangchu for decades. He trained and developed a large number of mass education experts and rural construction talents for the less-developed nations and regions in China and the world, hence reputed as 'Father of Mass Education of the World.'
