Global Education reflects the world’s realities: it is based on contexts and needs of the workshop participants and on the reality of the local society surrounding this group; and then the reality of the global society influencing our local realities and the interconnections between them. This requires to first deconstruct ideas using a wide variety of resources, adapted to the different capacities and characteristics of the group (i.e. age, language knowledge, cultural background and physical capacities). The objectives and the different steps of the activity have to be clear and understandable to everyone, in order to make sure that everyone can participate, but also in order to build a common understanding of the realities of the world and how they are interconnected. | Global Education reflects the world’s realities: it is based on contexts and needs of the workshop participants and on the reality of the local society surrounding this group; and then the reality of the global society influencing our local realities and the interconnections between them.
