Activism in Global Education: From Theory to Practice in Higher
Discussing the intersections of education, social justice, and activism. How can educators and researchers foster activist engagement in their work?
The UNESCO Chair in Global Citizenship Education in Higher Education (University of Bologna), in collaboration with the Academic Network on Global Education & Learning (ANGEL), and with the support of Global Education Network Europe (GENE), ran an International Summer School on Researching Global Education and Learning in Bertinoro, Italy from June 21 – 24, 2022. This event, along with the other activities of the ANGEL network, are co-funded by the European Union.
You can now watch a video that summarises this important milestone in the development of the network.
The Summer School aimed "to provide students with a theoretical outline of Global Education research, as well as practical skills for systematically reviewing literature - drawing on the established experience in ANGEL and looking at future developments".
