This morning, Grand Duchess Maria-Teresa participated in the Global Issues Network organised by the International School of Luxembourg (ISL) - which was also attended by three of the Grand Duchess' five children, Prince Félix, Prince Louis and Prince Sébastien - at the Chamber of Commerce. The Global Issues Network is an annual event trying to inspire students to take an interest in global issues. During her speech and a question and answer session, Grand Duchess Maria-Teresa talked about a project she set up in Burundi to help children to be released from prison and to start a new life afterwards, the importance of micro-credit and education as well as her personal role model Mother Theresa of Calcutta.
