Overview of the Junior Knight Chivalry Excellence Program
As one of its charitable activities, the Japan Delegation of the Royal House of Savoy has developed a Junior Knight Chivalry Excellence Program for children. This program translates the code of conduct known as chivalry and the way of knights thinking into modern-day concepts using insights from the latest cognitive science research.
Renowned for their courage, courtesy, generosity, and high self-esteem, knights have demonstrated their capacity for self-evaluation, love of peace, and commitment to a code of conduct that emphasizes protecting the weak. As an undertaking that standardizes these strengths, we believe this program will have a significant role to play within modern educational systems that otherwise limit the ability of students to engage in self-evaluation.
Students that complete the full 15-unit curriculum are bestowed with the title of Junior Knight by the Royal House of Savoy. We are confident this achievement will be a significant source of strength to those students who assume future positions of leadership not only in Japan but on the world stage.
This program is free and open to all children worldwide.
