Global citizenship education: Student voices, school aims and practices
Date: Wednesday, 16 August 2023
Global citizenship, a complex concept, continues to feature prominently in global education policy to prepare young people for visions of future societies.
In this webinar, Dr Caroline Ferguson will discuss her research which foregrounds student voice, exploring how global citizenship education manifests in the lived experience of secondary students in international schools in Finland, Australia and The Netherlands.
In looking at these findings alongside teacher perspectives plus analysis of school aims in mission statements and self-representational texts, suggestions will be discussed for building upon young peoples’ global consciousness to nurture exploration of their full humanity as valued active agents.
