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 are speechless. What an utterly incredible experience. Thank you is not enough; this is one of those life changing experiences - and our children are so privileged to be there.
Well organised, educational and enjoyable way to learn about a wonderful country.
The turtle project was amazing because it helped us connect with nature and get away from technology. They were very careful about what they did to help the environment.
It was all important but challenging kids about the real-world problems and the complexity of addressing these was the single most important thing.
One of the most eye-opening experiences ever. Not only did I learn about a new culture, but the trip tested my friendships and resilience in many good ways and I'm really glad I went!
Exceeded the expectations. Again, I cannot reinforce the importance of the GA programme and the benefit it has on all – students and staff alike.
