Part of the iLegend III project, the training course aims at providing participants with new skills and competences on Global Education, Media Literacy and Digital Citizen Education.

It targets education practitioners in the formal and non-formal sector, media professionals and state and non-state actors to:

reflect on Global Education, its concept, principles, and methodology;

explore the concept of Media Literacy, its link with Global Education and its impact on society;

develop specific competences focused on Media Literacy and Global Education for practitioners;

promote networking among participants involved in global awareness-raising or educational actions.

The conceptual and methodological framework of the course is based on the Global Education Guidelines, systematised by the North-South Centre. Through a non-formal learning approach, collaborative and interactive activities and exercises allow participants to contribute to their own learning process. The main content of the course relies on the Media Literacy for Global Education – Toolkit for Youth Multipliers.

The training course is fully online, hosted on HELP CoE e-learning platform. Two tutors will accompany participants during the 4-week activity. The expected workload is approximately 25 hours in total. The activity programme is structured in 4 modules (one module per week). The training course will be mainly asynchronous: this means that each participant will learn on their own schedule and pace, completing activities and exercises. At the end of the training, participants will obtain a certificate of participation.

30 participants will be selected for this activity. This activity is open to citizens of the 46 Council of Europe Member States plus Algeria, Cabo Verde, Morocco and Tunisia (North-South Centre Member States). However, a quota is available for citizens from other countries.

For more information on the application and selection processes, please carefully read the call for participants to verify the eligibility criteria.
