Development of global education programs at universities with a pedagogical and a non-pedagogical orientation

The project can be divided into three pillars.

In the first pillar, we mapped the GE environment in Slovakia, the status quo of GE at all levels of the educational system, and the main obstacles of GE integration into formal education, and we identified opportunities for its successful integration.

The second pillar consisted of networking activities to share the experiences and know-how of NGOs, universities, and primary and secondary school teachers. This networking took the form of face-to-face networking events, online, conferences, or online platforms (www.globalnevzdelavanie.sk).

The third pillar focused on building new capacities and skills for students/future teachers, as well as academics and primary and secondary school teachers (trainings, workshops, and seminars) to support existing GE subjects and programs at universities or creating new ones. In this way, the institutionalization of GE in higher education was supported and the cooperation of GE actors in Slovakia was increased.
