“Promoting PEACE: Peace in Europe and Asia through global Citizenship Education” is a 2 year project including 9 European (Belgium, Austria, Germany, Italy, Iceland, Poland, Slovakia, Portugal, Hungary) and 7 Asian organisations (India, China, Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand) that aims at developing a common 3-month exchange programme with Global Citizenship content for school students. Project participants will develop the content for the programme and will pilot the first GCTP camps in Europe and Asia. The specific objectives of the project are:1. Foster mutual knowledge and understanding between Asia and Europe to contribute to an increase in the number and the quality of intercultural exchanges between European and Asian partner organisations;2. Share and upscale current contents and best-practices of the European Citizenship Trimester Programme (ECTP) and the open badges3. Promote Active Global Citizenship and develop relevant educational material and an educational framework for the new Global Citizenship Trimester Programme (GCTP)4. Empower participants to establish links to other organisations in the field of global citizenship education5. Develop training skills of volunteers/youth workers and strengthen non-formal learning approaches in Europe and Asia 6. Contribute to the profiling and external recognition of non-formal learning and exchange organisations as quality providers of intercultural and global citizenship education.The project is led by a 5 people steering group ensuring a smooth flow of the project and quality outcomes. The project steering group will ensure the sustainability of the new programme after the project will be over. The participants of the project are 8 European and 8 Asian youth workers/volunteers of the project partners. In the first phase participants will split into groups of two for local study visits in all Asian countries. An attached seminar will bring together all project participants. The seminar will gather the outcomes of the study visits and will allow participants to shape the GCTP content. In a second seminar all participants will come together in Belgium to attend EFIL’s ECTP camp and learn about open badges and how to use them in recognition of non-formal learning. In the seminar participants will revise their GCTP content and finalise it for the second phase of the project. The second phase includes the pilot exchanges and the first GCTP camps. The implementation is split into two groups –Asian GCTP participants going to Europe and Europeans going to Asia. The final GCTP camps will take place in Brussels, Belgium and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Training course take place in parallel to the GCTP camps preparing project participants to take ownership of the camps and deliver trainings on global citizenship content. At least 60 GCTP programme participants are expected to participate in the GCTP pilot.All activities are based on non-formal learning methods.
