Global Education for a Global World

Description

Global Education for a Global World - this is an international strategic partnership for schools project. The project was held in Lithuania, Poland, Turkey, Romania and Spain. The project started on 1st of September 2017; it was implemented during 24 months. The main idea of the project was to create the possibilities for schools from different countries to work together, to discuss about global problems and how to start solving them step-by-step. The main theme of the project was the refugee crisis in Europe, their impact to the hosting countries economy and their society. This is a global problem, on which the media gives different insights, but policy actions to refugees integration problems are not presented to local community; this global problem is not discussed with young people in the schools; teachers do not have qualification, methods and experience of organizing global learning process. Therefore, this project was meant for eliminating this problem by educating students and teachers. The topics of the project included the refugee crisis, the impact on the economy, the attitudes in hosting society and the issue of tolerance, and media. Educators and young people exchanged their knowledge, thoughts and experiences about main concerns, such as discrimination, tolerance, refugees, peace promotion, economy, media and citizenship promotion. The learning activities and methods for discussing, understanding and solving the global problems on formal and non-formal education were created during the implementation of the project. The objectives of the project: - to analyse and understand the refugees' problems and the crisis impact on the hosting countries economy and society. - to develop competences for teachers to lead them to a critical thinking in a learning process; which should help to go deeper into the global problems understanding and local acting. - to enable young people to get quality dissemination of information; to let them try practically the media mechanisms. Partners visited each other during the project implementation period. Working in the different groups, exchanging opinions, discussing the most problematic topics together, educators and young people from different European countries have become friends with each other, improved their level of tolerance and in addition to that, gained a good life experience and the wide range of skills, including analytical, critical thinking, public speaking, debating and working in team skills.
