About this event

Development Perspectives and Children in Crossfire are delighted to welcome you to join us for a day of inspiration, idea sharing and thought-provoking discussion.

Our Cross-Border Conference will invite educators and stakeholders working on both sides of the border to explore the contribution that Global Citizenship Education can make in addressing the challenges facing people living in border communities.

The conference will include academic inputs, panel discussions, table talks and other presentations designed to encourage debate, but also to signpost opportunities moving forward.

There will be refreshments (tea, coffee and scones served) as well as a light lunch for all attendees.
