Worldwise Global Schools Grants Round

The latest WorldWise Global Schools (WWGS) grants round goes live on our website later this evening, where you will find the application guideline , FAQs and a link to the online application form.

WWGS aims to increase the engagement of post-primary schools with development education (DE) through a coherent approach that targets post-primary schools, networks and organisations that work on DE with the post-primary sector.

If your organisation works with post-primary students, teachers and principals to build their DE capacity, then you may apply to WWGS for funding under this call. Those organisations that are allocated funding under WWGS will work closely with our staff team to enable schools to adopt a whole-school approach to DE, and to ensure consistency in the quality and approach of DE that schools can access.

Criteria for applicants:

Funding will be given to organisations that are clearly building the capacity of schools to ‘do’ development education themselves.
Oly organisations not in receipt of Irish Aid programme funding may apply.
Deadline: 30th of September, 2013

An application workshop will take place for all interested organisations at 2pm on Tuesday 17th of September in the WWGS office in Dublin. Please contact us to register for a place.

Please visit www.worldwiseschools.ie for more details including application guidelines. Contact info@worldwiseschools.ie or 01 6852078 to speak to a member of the WWGS team directly.
