The MDGs (Millennium Development Goals) were ambitiously set to be met by 2015 in order to reduce poverty in the world and to increase the quality of life around the globe.

Global education is one pillars of the long term changes desired in our society and is part of the priorities of global actors. The main goal of the project is to develop practical competencies in global education among young Europeans and youth workers.
More specific objectives are:

• To develop practical skills in various global education methods and in non-formal education in general.
• To create pro-active attitudes towards global issues.
• To encourage participation and involvement of young people in social processes.
• To develop sense of common responsibility for the future of their local communities from a global perspective; (to think global and act local).
• To stimulate the participants to act as global education multipliers in their own organization and regions.
Training course
The approach of the training will be focused on developing specific global education and multiplying competencies and it will make use of the richness of experiential learning and non formal education in general (it will have a strong practical approach). During the training course the participants will go through a non-formal educational process that will include topics such as: global interdependencies (from cultural, economical and political approach), MDG-s and other international frameworks, post 2015 agenda and discussion, social and global justice, climate change, consumerism and sustainable lifestyle, educational and methodological tools, “take action”. The training will have a high level of practical approach, based on experiential learning and it will aim at empowering the participants of using these methods in their own realities. At the moment on facebook there is a growing global education platform (informal- not affiliated to any organization) which will serve as content support for all the participants and partners (before the training) and a platform for online multiplication afterwards for the beneficiaries.
