Summary Education for development provides teachers of all subjects and all age groups, from primary to tertiary, with exciting and practical classroom activities which can be integrated into existing curriculum. The handbook is divided into five sections which explore the global concepts central to education for development: interdependence; images and perceptions; social justice; conflict and conflict resolution; and change and the future. It provides a conceptual framework for global learning, yet leaves the teacher free to select activities appropriate to the pupils' age and current interest. Packed with photographs, drawings and photocopiable materials for use with pupils, this book will help teachers harness the immense pupil motivation generated by global issues
