APCEIU will co-organize the 2nd Youth Leadership Workshop on Global Citizenship Education (GCED) with the UN Secretary General’s Global Education First Initiative (GEFI) from 11 to 16 July 2016 at the Busan University of Foreign Studies in Busan, Republic of Korea. For this event, Busan University of Foreign Studies and Geumjeong District of Busan Metropolitan City will contribute as cooperation partners. The workshop aims to build the capacity of dynamic young leaders from across the world to lead and advocate for GCED. The workshop will be attended by a total of 52 youth leaders from 41 countries, selected on the basis of their current engagement and future commitment in educating youth at the local and national levels around GCED. Throughout the programme, the participants will actively engage with all components of the workshop, each taking up a role to truly make the workshop “for the youth, by the youth.” Consisting of a wide variety of interactive sessions and activities, the workshop will enable the participants to build a common understanding of GCED and its key priorities, to elaborate leadership strategies suitable for implementation at the local and national levels, and concretize plans for the establishment of GCED Youth Network to advance the GCED agenda and UN SDGs. At the end of the workshop, the participants will propose leadership strategies as the outcome of their group discussions, and identify future activities for the GCED youth network.
