Global Citizenship Education as a topic in school
The concept of Global Citizenship Education is based on the UNESCO recommendations on ´Education for International Understanding, Cooperation and Peace´ from 1974. In this context, education in the sense of Global Citizenship Education is understood as ´a form of learning and a way of thinking that encourages people to trace the interconnections between local, regional and global levels and to deal with social inequality´.
The thematic framework of Global Citizenship Education is very broad. Global Citizenship Education encompasses social, economic, political, cultural or ecological topics and can provide an orientation framework for the thematic selection.Teach the Change!

Global inequality
´Global inequality is a central theme of Global Citizenship Education - achieving more global justice along with other values, is the basis and the goal of Global Learning. Global inequality has reached enormous dimensions - despite international efforts, it continues to increase in many areas of life: 1 % of the world's population still earns still more than the rest of the world together, the number of billionaires is increasing.Global Citizenship Education does not teach specific content or opinions. It rather aims at enabling students to critically question themselves and their environment in a global world, to form their own opinions and to actively support their views.On the following pages you will find interesting tools for your work on Global Inequality from the perspective of Global Citizenship Education:

Climate Change
Societies are currently facing new challenges resulting from rapid globalization and technological development. More than ever, there is a need to educate citizens with increasingly sophisticated skills and knowledge to generate knowledge as well as to teach citizens how to have a looka at the world from a critical perspective and identify issues that should be priority targets for one's own self reflection. This should comprise an education that questions the complexity of the problems we face, their causes and consequences, and prepares us to develop alternative responses for the world we live in today, based on active and intense civic participation.
Here you can find topics and methods to work on with your students.

Gender Equality
One of the global challenges of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is addressing gender inequality. It is considered a cross-cutting issue throughout the Agenda and Goal 5 is dedicated to it. It states that it is important to achieve gender equality and empower all females´ by ending all forms of discrimination against women and girls everywhere.
Gender inequalities manifest themselves in all dimensions of sustainable development.
Even today:- Globally, there are 122 women aged 25 to 34 living in extreme poverty for every 100 men of the same age group.
- Up to 30 % of income inequalities are due to inequalities within families, between men and women. Women are subject more than men to living below 50 % of average income
- In 18 countries, husbands can legally prevent their wives from working; in 39 countries female daughters do not have the same inheritance rights as male children; in 49 countries there are no laws protecting women from domestic violence.
- Climate change has a disproportionate impact on women and children, who are 14 times more likely than men to die in a disaster" (Südwind 2022).
