PROJECTS

Information about our project work

We run a range of projects providing opportunities for teachers, youth workers and young people to get actively involved in exploring all aspects of global citizenship. Our projects offer easy ways in to explore big topics like inequality and conflict and build core skills such as critical thinking, creativity, communication and student leadership.

Take a look at our current project activities and our archive of past projects working with schools, young people and the wider community.

Current Projects/Opportunities:

Global Teachers Award Level 1 is now available across England
from the Consortium of Development Education Centres (CoDEC), supported by the British Council's Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning (CCGL). This 6 hour Intermediate course (CCGL Level 2) is free to teachers (QTS) working in all state-funded schools.
Derby Schools Linking Programme: The programme offers a positive, age-appropriate curriculum contribution to spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils, addressing Fundamental British Values and the Prevent Duty.
Thinking Otherwise is another Erasmus + KA2 strategic partnership project, which builds on the success of the In Others' Shoes project. Working with some of the previous partners (Germany, Slovenia, Turkey & Estonia), the project aims to further-develop teacher skills in critical literacy and peer education and a new teacher resource, as well as resources “by young people, for young people” on developing critical thinking skills, identifying and responding to manipulative messages in social media, will be created.
Leaving No-One Behind: Brand new project, funded by Erasmus+, working with our partners in Germany and Slovenia and two local special schools. The focus of this project is "exploring ways in which global learning can help SEND students and other marginalised learners reach their full potential".
