A rights-based approach in the Early Learning and Childcare sector

This interactive, online session will explore the links with Global Citizenship, Rights and the Global Goals in early years settings.
About this Event

This interactive online session will give you an introduction to Global Citizenship and Learning for Sustainability, and how these can link to Rights and the UN Global Goals in early years settings. You'll get a chance to try out simple, engaging activities which can help develop the skills and values of a Global Citizen in young children.

All courses run by the Scottish Development Education Centres are highly interactive, both to model the participatory global citizenship approach, and also so we can introduce activities and methodologies for use in the classroom. This course will make use of breakout rooms and simple digital participation tools (all necessary instructions will be given!). It can be hard to participate fully on a phone or tablet, so we highly recommend you join the course on a desktop or laptop computer, with your microphone and video enabled.

This course will be held on Zoom to make use of the interactive capabilities of this platform. Depending on your Local Authority, it might be easier to access the course on your own personal computer rather than a council one.

If you have particular access needs, please contact us at [email protected] so we can work together to create as positive an experience for you as we can.

All 32 local authority areas in Scotland are covered by a Development Education Centre – for full details, including locations and how to contact your local DEC, please visit: ideas-forum.org.uk/decs
