==Brief Background and History== | |||
DE as a notion has been part of the mentality of the organization from its very beginning. | |||
Its signs are evident in projects promoting conflict resolution, intercultural and multicultural communication and understanding, diversity etc. | |||
In 2005 steps towards a clear development education approach have been taking root. | |||
First formal engagement with teachers, and teacher trainings took place in 2006 with the EU funded project – Extending EU Citizenship to the Eastern End of Europe, where in collaboration with the Representation of the UNHCR in Cyprus, and the Human Rights Education Network we have organized a series of trainings for teachers covering all cities of Cyprus. | |||
These teachers and their schools were to form the dow for the trainings soon to take place under ADE and Teach MDGs. | |||
