This guide provides a framework for global citizenship education and a set of tools clustered in 4 modules which will help youth workers, youth leaders and educators develop the global citizenship competencies of young people.

Aims of the tool

This guide aims to provide a framework of competencies that young people around Europe need to further develop and strengthen so that they can act better in this globalised and interconnected world.

Description of the tool

This guide is the outcome of the efforts of youth workers from Lithuania, Bulgaria, Cyprus and Spain towards broadening active civic participation of young people and enabling them to contribute to meeting global challenges.
The guide provides a framework for global citizenship education which includes a set of competencies that young people need in order to live and act in this globalised and interconnected world. Furthermore, it suggests a set of tools which aim to support young learners in their paths towards active and responsible global citizenship. These tools are clustered in four training modules around the themes of Environment, Technology, Moving and Stuff.
To educate global citizens who are not only aware of world realities but are also able to act and make a difference in the society, this guide proposs a 6-steps approach to global citizenship. This approach is also known as the Get Global! process provided in the publication Get Global! A Skills-based Approach to Active Global Citizenship. This concept of the global citizenship education process includes key elements that need to be gained by young people to become promoters of global solidarity and justice and to be able to take action towards a more just and sustainable world.
