Listen to a series of short presentations from the authors of key chapters from both collections, with a chance to ask questions about their writing and research.

Pedagogy of Hope for Global Social Justice

Following Paulo Freire and his concept of pedagogy of hope, this open access book explores the educational role of hope as an approach to learning about global issues in different areas of the world.

Research in Global Learning: Methodologies for global citizenship and sustainable development education

The book showcases the outcomes of practical research that demonstrates the relevance of global themes in addressing today’s educational challenges in countries as diverse as Kazakhstan, Greece, Ghana, Israel, Pakistan and Turkey, as well as the regions of East Asia and the Caribbean.


This event will be particularly useful for researchers and policymakers with an interest in research on Global Education and Learning, and Education for Sustainability.

Please note this is a hybrid event and can be joined either in-person or online.
