Global Centre for Education: Policy and Practice

The Centre for Global Education is calling for contributions to Issue 26 of its bi-annual, open access, peer reviewed journal Policy and Practice: A Development Education Review which will be published in Spring 2018 on the theme ‘Development Education in Politically Uncertain Times’. 

The past year has been a highly volatile and politically unstable one with a slide toward popular nationalism in several countries and regions across the world. The questions posed by this issue will include:

  • How can the Development Education sector respond to the rise of popular nationalism? 
  • In what way can our practice equip learners with the skills to separate the wheat from the chaff served up by our media? 
  • How can we create new alliances in society to build popular movements that can sustain change? 

Authors interested in submitting an article should send a 300 word précis to journal editor, Stephen McCloskey, via stephen@centreforglobaleducation.com  by 08 September.

The submission date for commissioned articles is Friday, 08 December. Find out more here

In June, a delegation from our Erasmus+ partner organisation LAPAS (Latvian Platform for Development Cooperation) visited Dublin for a two-day learning and exchange visit hosted by IDEA. The visit was part of an ongoing collaboration with LAPAS to strengthen quality global citizenship education (GCE) in Ireland and Latvia, using the IDEA Code of Good Practice as a framework. You can find out more about the Erasmus+ project here.
