Abstract

In today's world, education is no longer confined to classrooms within our neighbourhoods. Global learning opens doors to new perspectives, connecting us with people from different comers of the globe. Global learning (GL), also known as global education or global citizenship education, is an educational approach that aims to foster a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of the world and to prepare individuals to be active and responsible global citizens. It is the process of diverse people collaboratively analyzing and addressing complex problems (Hartman et. al., 2023). The GL education is much more than just learning about global and development issues. It aims to support teachers to develop their knowledge, skills and values base, in order to provide a quality learning experience to students and young people about how they relate to a globalised world (Bourn, 2014). It can also pose challenges to existing approaches to teaching and learning since it goes beyond traditional academic subjects and emphasizes developing knowledge, skills, and attitudes that enable individuals to engage with global issues and challenges.
