Abstract:

Regular 'Global Journeys' provide opportunities for groups of Swedish teachers and educational professionals to spend an intense period of time in a developing country. This equips them to promote sustainable development issues in their teaching. The visits are part of a structured process of learning, planned a year in advance and evaluated 4 months later. They include space to discuss how to translate the experience into professional practice on return.
