1. Description of the project
The Project
Global Education without borders is a 3 years program, bringing together organisations and multipliers from six Central- and Eastern European countries: Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary and Romania, to build up a network for exchange of materials, good practice and strategies on Global Education.
The 5th International Seminar
The international seminar on “Global Resources for Global Education” will bring together professionals involved in the development of study materials: textbook and elearning content authors/developers, editors and publishers interested in how the topics of global education can be integrated into educational resources. The seminar offers lectures and interactive workshops about Global Education, with a special focus on resources and study materials helping the teachers, trainers and students during the teaching/learning. Throughout the seminar the trainers and the participants will exchange experiences, learn more about global education resources and search, investigate and define quality criteria for educational materials. The main aims are to deepen the knowledge of the participants on quality criteria, and show new methods and tools to change experiences/best practices.
What is global education?
Global Education is an educational perspective which arises from the fact that contemporary people live and interact in an increasingly globalized world. This makes it crucial for education to give learners the opportunity and competences to reflect and share their own point of view and role within a global society, as well as to understand and discuss complex relationships of common social, ecological, political and economic issues, so as to derive new ways of thinking and acting.

Vanessa Andreotti 2011 http://oulu.academia.edu/VanessaAndreotti Examples from teaching climate change
Climate change is the most serious issue facing humankind. I teach how and why it is happening and what they can do as individuals.
I teach critical thinking skills and enquiry based learning. We examine all the evidence and students come to a rational decision based on the overwhelming scientific evidence.
We explore all the arguments and perspectives across the globe. We try to understand the motivations, as well as the arguments, of climate change deniers. In this way students are better equipped to take action at home and in the community.
We use climate change to explore the complexities of a globalised world. We explore different and changing perspectives and how they relate to culture, power, commerce, poverty etc. across the globe.
