GlobErasmus

GlobErasmus is a project, developed together

with EMA, in the field of Global Citizenship

Education. The project aimed at building

capacity in the field of SDGs, through online

engagement and a physical training. It resulted

in a toolkit for ESAA Member Organisations.

“4.7. By 2030, ensure that all learners acquire the

knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable

development, including, among others, through

education for sustainable development and sustainable

lifestyles, human rights, gender equality, promotion of a

culture of peace and non-violence, global citizenship

and appreciation of cultural diversity and of culture's

contribution to sustainable development.”
