Participate in seminars with international NGO experts working in the field, take part in a community development project, and learn how sustainable livelihoods programmes improve lives by introducing alternative income streams into developing economies.
Develop your knowledge and engage critically with international and local conservation NGOs, explore biodiverse environments through observational research, and learn how communities are engaging with permaculture, climate change reduction and endangered species conservation.
Seminars with UN Human Rights agencies in Geneva, working on a clean water project in a refugee camp, meeting a gender rights activist, or exchanging ideas with school children in a secular ethics workshop – there are many ways you can explore social justice issues on a Global Action trip.
Global Learning is education that puts cross-curricular learning in a global context. We won’t be asking you to sit an exam on it, but we hope you will look at life differently after your trip (in a good way!).
It helps support:
“We must foster global citizenship. Education is about more than literacy and numeracy. It is also about citizenry. Education must fully assume its essential role in helping people to forge more just, peaceful and tolerant societies.”
Ban Ki-moon, Former United Nations Secretary-General
We have had our son home for a week now. It is wonderful to see him so animated and so very thrilled with the entirety of his trip. I am so incredibly grateful that he has had this marvellous experience, thanks to you and your Global Action Team. Thank you to everyone for the most brilliant, successful trip.
The trip exceeded my expectations. I did not anticipate the far-reaching positive effect it would have on my daughter.
I really enjoyed the trip and am glad I signed up. Monteverde was the best – the location was amazing!
5 days in Geneva would be an amazing experience for any 17-18 year old. But this trip was truly amazing - it opened up their eyes to life and what really goes on. My daughter loved every part of the trip, learnt loads, and would love to go and live in Geneva now!
Learnt so much about the culture and the way of life in Zanzibar. All workshops were really fun and there was a huge range of things to do. It was amazing meeting all the people and snorkelling was fantastic. All the experiences were incredible - I wouldn't change a thing.
Our time in Zanzibar has been fascinating - it has opened our eyes to our privilege, and it has been the trip we will remember forever.
