School workshops
Your students can examine global issues in our interactive and participatory Global Citizenship Education workshops featuring voices from Self Help Africa programmes.
Workshops are free of charge as our programme is funded by Irish Aid
Post-Primary Schools and Youthreach Centres
Available workshops include:
THE GLOBAL GOALS
What can Irish students do to create a fairer world in 2030 in accordance with the UN Sustainable Development Goals?
CLIMATE ACTION
Learn about contributors to climate change in Ireland, the varying impact it has in different parts of the world, and the benefits of planting trees.
FOOD SECURITY
Modern food production is contributing to climate change, which has come to threaten food security. How do we make our food system fit for purpose?
SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
Considering the supply chain of food, explore alternatives to how we feed ourselves in Ireland and the practices of rural farming families in Africa.
ETHICAL FASHION
The clothing supply chain is complex and features environmental and human rights abuses throughout - what is the true cost of our clothes?
GENDER EQUALITY
Inequality of opportunity between genders exists in every country. How can we play our part to improve outcomes in Ireland and around the world?
DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
How reputable are your online sources? Learn how to be safe online and how we can use the internet and social media to be digital citizens for change.
TRADE JUSTICE
International trade is the norm, but are the rules fair and does everyone benefit? Students can act as part of the solution towards global equality.
Themes underpinning our workshops suit the required delivery of Wellbeing hours throughout the year and also any Green School or social entrepreneur programmes.
Primary Schools
Our programme for 5th and 6th class pupils has been devised using participative and collaborative learning approaches.
Our arts-based engagement supports the INTO promotion of the Global Citizenship Schools and its commitment to the UN Global Goals 2030.
How to survive a charging elephant. Learning to live and work together.
Pupils consider life in rural Africa, with all the complex economic and environmental challenges, all the while living with the needs and wants of the iconic African elephant.
Higher Education
We facilitate workshops for all Further and Higher Education disciplines with Global Citizenship workshops, short courses, and in-depth Social Justice modules for undergraduates, Masters of Education (PME) students, and CPD for university staff.
