Workshop: IDEA Strategic Plan

Date: Wednesday 28 February, 10.00am - 1.00pm.

Location: IDEA Office, 6 Gardiner Row, Dublin 1


IDEA is inviting our members to participate in an interactive workshop on our new Strategic Plan for 2024 - 2029 on Wednesday 28 February in the IDEA Office, 6 Gardiner Row, Dublin 1, 10.00am - 1.00pm.


This is an important opportunity for us to hear from you about your experiences as part of the Global Citizenship Education / Development Education sector and as a member of IDEA, and about your hopes and expectations for what IDEA should prioritise in the coming years to achieve better outcomes for our community. This will also be an opportunity to reflect on IDEA’s strengths and achievements under the last Strategic Plan, and to identify the areas where we need to focus our energies in the future.


This workshop is part of a broader consultation process which will include an e-survey open to all IDEA members that will be shared later in February.


IDEA’s strategy development work is being facilitated by 2into3, a consultancy firm who specialise in building the capacity of mission-driven organisations so that they can have a transformative impact on society in Ireland and around the world.

IDEA is looking for a video production company/ animator for an upcoming video project. We have funding available to create a short animated educational video resource for members as part of The Code of Good Practice. The video will help viewers understand what quality GCE is and why it matters in the world today. The intended audience for the video are people who are connected to the Code of Good Practice and GCE in their work but not yet very familiar with it e.g. non-GCE staff in member organisations, board members of member organisations, teachers, youth workers, European partners, new members to the Code and new staff to IDEA member organisations. Please submit your CV and a short letter of interest outlining a proposal for the video (including the number of days you envisage and the fee) to code@ideaonline.ie. The deadline for application is Wednesday, 30 July 05pm. Click here for the full terms of reference.

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.
