GAINKids
Global Citizenship for Kids
Based on the Children’s Rights Convention, GAINKids aims to promote Global Citizenship at a pre-school level. The project engages a three-dimensional approach, which encompasses actions for children, training for teachers and professionals as well as sensibilizing families for the topic. Equal opportunities, non-discrimination, gender equality and diversity are the themes to be explored in this project, leading to a pedagogical toolkit which is influenced by children’s own reflections.
