GLOBAL EDUCATION WEEK 2007
EVALUATION & PLANNING FEEDBACK FORM
1. Please indicate the major achievement of the GEW 2007 in your country
2. Please indicate obstacles for a sound implementation of GEW
3. How is the GEW coordinated nationally?
Is there any official coordinating structure?
In 2007 the Methodological and Pedagogical Centre (MPC) in Prešov has accepted my personal request to become a coordinating institution for the GEW in primary and secondary schools at the national level.
Or a Global Education national platform?
There is no Global Education national platform in Slovakia.
Which are your main partners at national level? And international level?
As mentioned above currently it is MPC Prešov.
4. Has any website on Global Education Week activities or resources been developed in your country? If site exists please share its web-address.
There are two websites of this kind: www.mcpo.sk
www.ksuke.sk
5. Please report on networking and/or coordination strategies developed during the GEW (institutional level / local authorities / educational & youth structures / civil society / media)
A few data available yet.
6. After the week, any comments on the theme choice for GEW 2007 (relevance, adaptability, changes made to theme at national level, usefulness for activities with different age ranges, sectors, etc. ) In our opinion the MDG`s as overarching themes for GEW are good .Therefore the GEW 2007 theme
Six billion-ONE Humanity was accepted, in Slovak “Humanita pre všetkých“.
7. Please report, if possible, relevant quantitative results concerning the GEW in your country (i.e. number of schools - classes, pupils, teachers involved; youth organisations or groups, young people or youth workers/leaders; conferences; training events; news features; materials produced, related figures and dissemination, etc.) No data available yet.
8. Please report relevant qualitative information concerning the impact of the GEW in your country (i.e. type of strategies, methods, projects; reactions and suggestions by teachers, pupils, youth organisations; local communities; educational authorities, Ministry of Education; opportunities for co-operation among NGOs, teachers etc.)
9. For Global Education Week 2007,
We are thinking already about GEW 2008. Most probably we will include “intercultural dialogue” in the overall theme.
· Is there a theme-choosing process at national level; if so, can you describe it for the benefit of other countries that do not have such a process?
· Are there any themes already emerging for the week at national level – if so, which themes?
10. Are there any existing or planned educational materials that you would like to share with the network?

11. Give concrete examples on how the North-South Centre has been useful in facilitating the Global Education Week in your country; The first very important steps have been done in 2005 (national seminar in Bratislava and regional seminar in Košice). Also “The Programme of National
Support for Global Education” was of great importance. The continuation would
be very much welcome and appreciated.
12.Please indicate how North-South Centre could improve its actions in supporting your work in GEW in your country and at the European level.
Write please an official letter to Minister, Ministry of Education
13. Please do suggest ideas for improving the GEW preparatory process; the GEW webpage and the Global Education Newsletter
In my opinion the preparatory process is OK.
Thank you for your co-operation!
