However, if educators are to facilitate the development of adults\u2019 global competences, it is essential that they themselves are globally competent, because creating globally competent citizens require globally competent educators.<\/p>\n<p>The project activities will be achieved through a number of activities that include intellectual outputs, joint staff training, and blended training. The main activities will include analysing global adult learning in Europe, identifying the global competences required by adults and adult educators, developing learning programmes and resources, joint staff training and blended learning of adult learners.<\/p>\n<p>The activities are expected to produce the following results:<br \/>\n1. A comparative analysis of adult global learning in Europe<br \/>\n2. Global competency frameworks for adults and adult educators<br \/>\n3. A course for adult educators on global and international development issues<br \/>\n4. Learning resources including guidance for global education<br \/>\n5. Guidance for educators on delivering global education.<\/p>\n<p>The global and development issues to be addressed in the project affect everyone, no matter where they live, so there is added value in carrying it out transnationally. It will provide different perspectives to the issues and opportunities to share experiences, learn from each other, generate solutions capable of replication internationally, and foster future partnership working on issues of common European interest.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to learning about global and international development issues, the project provides opportunities for adults to develop and improve their core competences, especially those of digital competence, social competence and cultural and artistic expression.The results of this project has the potential to generate debates at all levels on the issue of global competence, and could lead to some kind of consensus on the specific global competences for citizens and educators, and how they might be developed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Project coordinator<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>United Kingdom<\/strong> \u2013 Global Learning &amp; Skills Partnership<\/p>\n<p><strong>Project partners<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Estonia<\/strong>\u2013 ETKA Andras<br \/>\n<strong>France<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Institut de Formation et d\u00b4Appui aux Initiatives de Developpement<br \/>\n<strong>Portugal<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 AidLearn, Consultoria em Recursos Humanos Lda.<br \/>\n<strong>United Kingdom<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Morley College Limited<br \/>\n<strong>Spain\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013\u00a0Universidad de Sevilla<br \/>\n<strong>Italy<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Prometeo<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.global-learning-skills-partnership.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Project homepage<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andras.ee\/projekti-bigger-picture-tulemused\/\"><strong>Project results<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21549,"parent":0,"menu_order":1197,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-25642","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25642"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25642\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25643,"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25642\/revisions\/25643"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21549"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/andras.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
