This course provides a comprehensive foundation in curriculum design for Global Citizenship Education (GCED), emphasizing critical pedagogy, transformative learning, and peacebuilding. It explores theoretical perspectives on education’s societal role and examines innovative teaching methods suited for both formal and non-formal contexts.

Participants will also engage with emerging and ongoing educational challenges, including AI, digital pedagogy, and developing strategies to strengthen or create curriculum for the building of a peaceful, just, inclusive, and sustainable world.

The course includes four interactive “classroom” weeks featuring PowerPoint lectures, presentations, videos, and forum discussions. Participants must also attend the mandatory weekly Zoom live sessions (see schedule for details).

Live sessions will be held every Thursday at 12 PM - 2 PM (Korea Standard Time).
