The Development Education Forum is an open space for discussion and debate between people with an interest in development education. It also contains a space for people to post information about upcoming events. You are invited to register, to create a username and password, and then participate in and start discussions in the forum.

DE DoT. The DE Database of Training is for anyone who wants to learn more about Development Education. It contains a listing of DE trainings. All IDEA members can post details about the trainings they offer, whether they are weekend courses in Global Youth Work or workshops offered on request on Fair Trade. From Development Theory, to DE Practice, from practical skills-based training to FETAC-accredited evening classes, the Database lists everything being offered by IDEA members. The aim of the Database is to contribute to the Professional Development of DE in Ireland by providing an overview of all the training opportunities being offered in the sector. Currently, only IDEA members are permitted to post to the Database. Find out how to register for the Database here.

IDEA Working Groups.....

Working Groups

The Members Space provides IDEA members with a members-only space for posting and sharing documents, posting news articles and participating in online discussions. You must be logged in to see and use this space. Much of IDEA's work is done through its National Council and working groups comprised of members. This is a space to assist that process. The Members Space also hosts discussions between participants of long-term learning programmes with IDEA, such as Beyond 2015: Learning for Global Partnership.

If you are not a member of IDEA you can find out how to become one and what is involved in the section Become a Member.
