Policy Paper on Global Education: a global vision on education - an education for global citizenship

06/05/2008

Read the policy paper adopted at the Council of Members, Castelldefels, Catalonia, Spain, 2-3 My 2008.

In this Policy Paper the European Youth Forum (YFJ) addresses two challenges our societies are facing; firstly the need to build a society that is socially just for everyone and is developed in a sustainable way, and secondly to do it in a world that is globalising at an ever increasing speed. Tackling these challenges in the field of education is one of the priorities of the YFJ work. The YFJ believes that a new approach to education is needed and with this Policy Paper, Global Education is put forward as such.
