This course was developed to assist the increased demand of global educators wishing to provide transformative and participatory educational experiences that are rooted in student’s own passions and interests. 

Changemaker Education aims to improve local and global communities in some way, big or small and is a core part of Global Citizenship and Global Competence. It is a fast growing area around the world, across different education sectors. 

Traditionally it has been an expectation that only tertiary or upper high school students are best equipped to do this work. However, as educational expectations shift towards these transformative and participatory approaches, a variety of student-centered pedagogies are being adopted, and it is becoming clear that Changemaker Education is possible from Early Years Education onwards, even in its most simplest forms.
