GENE Review 2015
Irish Aid have asked Global Education Network Europe (GENE) to carry out a peer review of Development Education in Ireland. This review will inform the development of Irish Aid’s future strategy for Development Education.
IDEA has played an active role in ensuring that the voice of the Development Education sector is reflected in this review and that as many actors as possible from across Development Education in Ireland were involved in the process. IDEA Task Groups focusing on Formal Education, the Adult and Community sector and the Youth sector met between January and April 2015 to outline successes, challenges, opportunities and strategic priorities for Development Education. There has been a very active engagement of the sector in this work, and as well as identifying priorities for the GENE review process, it has also identified priorities that will be useful for future inputs into the Irish Aid Development Education strategy.
Task Groups met with the GENE review team in April 2015 and took part in a plenary discussion hosted by Irish Aid in Farmleigh House. As the next step in the process, written submissions were sent to Irish Aid at the end of May. During 2015 and 2016 we will continue to engage with the development of a new Irish Aid strategy on Development Education.
