Stories of Change - Global Citizenship Education Webinar

To address current global challenges, the linkages between the global and the local are fundamentally important. Global citizenship education plays a critical role in this regard. It helps build skills and knowledge that are required to understand and play an active role in addressing complex global challenges in ways that inform change without (re)producing harmful practices. This webinar highlights provincial and regional councils’ work on global citizenship. Leaders in global citizenship education will share their projects and some of the promising practises they have integrated in their approaches to global citizenship. The webinar builds on ICN’s ongoing work on global citizenship.
