Peace for the Planet. A planet of Peace. 

13 to 19 November 2023

 

Global Education helps learners to develop individual and collective responses to social, ecological, political, economic, and ethical issues of common concern. It mobilises commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and in particular SDG 4.7: Education for sustainable development and global citizenship.

The Global Education Week is an annual worldwide awareness raising initiative unfolding during the third week of November. It is a call to rethink our world together, using Global Education as a tool for solidarity and change and contribute to a more and sustainable and equitable world. In preparation and during the Week solutions are shared to rethink our habits and ways of living, spending, and consuming but also finding new ways of education and socialisation.

 

CONCEPT NOTE

In 2023, the actions of the Global Education Week focused on two of the five pillars of the Agenda 2030 (People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace and Partnership). The slogan of this edition was: “Peace for the planet. A planet of peace”.
