Also called “Global Citizenship Education”, Development Education and Awareness-Raising (DEAR) enables people of all ages to reflect critically and assume active roles, both locally and globally.
"It empowers people to understand, imagine, hope, and act to bring about a world of social and climate justice, peace, solidarity, equity and equality, planetary sustainability, and international understanding".
