In his next conversation, Josh speaks with Educationalist, Penny Rabiger who he met at a Global Citizenship conference for educators run by Highland One World in Inverness. She was the guest speaker alongside Lisa Williams of the Edinburgh Carribean Association.
Recorded on Friday 1st May. Links for this Episode Penny is Director of Engagement at Lyfta Co-founder of BAMEEd Network She mentions Runnymede's Our Migration Story The UN's Sustainable Development Goals (aka SDGs or 'Global Goals') are 17 goals that came out of a worldwide consultation (including input from the global public) and that followed on from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The latter focused more on the so-called 'developing' world but, as Penny mentions, the SDGs are aimed at every country and acknowledge that more must be done to reduce inequalities, poverty etc. in all countries. They are also used by many educators and offer a useful, accessible framework for engaging educators and pupils alike with global social, political and environmental issues.
