This short event will bring together educators, students, researchers and policymakers to launch ‘The Case for Global Learning’.
This paper puts forward a clear and urgent message from more than 30 educational organisations from across the UK: Educators are struggling to address a growing roster of complex and global issues, and swift action is required to help them equip learners with the skills and knowledge they need to develop as global citizens. We are calling for a national strategy on Global Learning, to bring the UK back to the forefront of the practice of this transformational educational approach.
You will hear from a range of speakers and there will be ample time for questions.
If you are registered, you will be sent a link to the paper in advance of the event.
