BeGlobal aims to foster internationalisation of higher education and active global citizenship in Colombia and Chile, with the final goal to contribute to improve the social cohesion of this region.
To do that, the project will train and implement practical cases on the fields of “Global Citizenship” and “Internationalisation for society” by the use of innovative pedagogical paths and gamification education tools, especially the serious games.
Target groups who will benefit the project are higher education staff (academic and administrative) form Colombia and Chile; students, most of them providing from vulnerable sectors; and civic society as a whole, with special focus on NGO.
In summary, BeGlobal aims to increase the knowledge, skills and attitudes that will contribute in long-term to develop active citizenship, and therefore, better future leaders capable of responding to the 21st political, social, economic and environmental challenges with a social and global responsibility approach.
