‘Global issues’ are issues that transcend national boundaries, and which demand a collective, comprehensive human response at both an international and local level. They include (but by no means exhaustively) issues such as: human rights, animal rights, the climate crisis, food insecurity, equality, housing, conflict resolution, prejudice and discrimination, rampant consumerism, working conditions, over-population, sustainable development, migration, physical- and mental- health and wellbeing. We hope the resources below will provide you with inspiration, as well as concrete, practical tools and ideas for effectively integrated such issues into your teaching, in-so-doing improving your own, your colleagues’ and your students’ critical literacy.
