Call for Participation: Global Education Week 2026

in November under the motto “My Voice, Our Action, Our Common Future”, organised by the North-South Centre of the Council of Europe and the Network of National Coordinators for Global Education. This year’s theme, “My Voice, Our Action, Our Common Future”, focuses on developing critical thinking as a civic and democratic competence. It highlights the importance of overcoming digital disinformation and algorithm-generated narratives, treating democracy as a living practice learned through a holistic approach. Global Education Week is implemented within the framework of the joint EU–Council of Europe programme “iLegend III” and aims to encourage policymakers, educators, activists, young people and children across Europe and the world to come together and promote the importance of global education as a key tool in building a fairer and more sustainable world.
