Why Global Education?
Global Education is the future. We are an interconnected world economically, politically, and socially, and our relationships with the world will only continue to become more connected. Young people want to start working on creating change, and they want to learn the skills needed to make this possible! Our education systems need to reflect this shift, and it starts with US. Teachers, WE CAN BE THE CHANGE.
My Purpose
As a Fulbright Teachers as Global Scholars participant, and global and climate justice education advocate, I believe it is my responsibility to share knowledge and resources with teachers, students, and community leaders so we can all work together to provide young people with the necessary knowledge and tools needed to become changemakers NOW.

It can feel overwhelming, right? Where do we even begin?
Well, the UN Sustainable Development Goals are a GREAT place to start.
