Training for teachers: Look up! Time to act? Political options for action in elementary school?

Children come into contact with the global challenges of our time. Empirical findings show that they have a wide range of ideas and questions in this regard. The symposium not only focuses on civic education approaches for dealing with global sustainability issues with children, but also specifically asks about the political action and participation opportunities of primary school children. Together with activists, experts and practitioners, political and pedagogical approaches will be discussed to enable children to actively participate in shaping this world.

There will be childcare options as part of the symposium! Fun and games on the topic of "Global Learning" for children aged 4-99.
