and live on Freeview channel 276
The resource was collaboratively created by young people not only from Ireland, but from across Africa as well. The young people came together through GOAL’s Global Youth Programme. Irish facilitator Niamh Flynn says “This resource aims to create a community that is there to support all its members. It is everybody’s responsibility as a global citizen to take the initiative in being part of something bigger than yourself.”
GOAL Global Citizenship Manager Nina Sachau says, “At the heart of GOAL’s Public Engagement, GOAL’s Global Youth programme brings young people together from all over the world to deepen their understanding of Global Citizenship.”

Hide AdDuring 2020 the participants of the GOAL Global Youth programme created this resource to invite their peers across the planet to develop the critical thinking, communication, and leadership skills that will support them in their journey as global citizens. It is free for all participants and open to anyone aged between 18-25 or educators of any age. No prior knowledge of the issues is required. All that is needed is an interest in helping to create a more sustainable future for all.
