From a development education perspective, education is itself also crucial in helping learners to engage critically with debates about sustainable development. The contributions in this issue focus on the role of education in promoting the SDG agenda, whether through educational initiatives, or through the presentation of relevant concepts and approaches in policy and curriculum documents.

Bridge 47 - Tender for a Regional Knowledge Exchange Consultant – Northern European Partnership

by Sanna Rekola

Viestin välitti, Sanna Rekola / Fingo Bridge 47 - Tender for a Regional Knowledge Exchange Consultant – Northern European Partnership The Bridge 47 – Building Global Citizenship<https://www.eadi.org/bridge-47-building-global-citizenship/> project mobilises global civil society to contribute to global justice and eradication of poverty through Global Citizenship Education (GCE). The project provides a space for civil society organisations, activists and other interested people to interact with one another, exchange information and resources and develop new and innovative approaches for global citizenship education. The project focuses on joint advocacy efforts and building new partnerships, while it also supports the civil society to develop new and effective approaches to reaching out to new stakeholders and provides tools to promote and act upon Global Citizenship Education. The project works closely with partners engaged in informal and non-formal education and life-long learning with a view to promoting transformative change in society. Download the full tender here<https://www.eadi.org/typo3/fileadmin/user_upload/Tender_Northern_Partnershi…> The United Nations 2030 Agenda considers education central in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and for the first time in the global context, recognises that parallel efforts are needed to ensure that all lifelong learners, of different ages and backgrounds, acquire the knowledge and skills to promote sustainable development as outlined in detail by SDG 4.7. Working towards this goal, the B47 project facilitates the implementation of this target and I) aims at developing and promoting successful policies and practices concerning new and innovative ways of reaching out to the wider society OR ii) responds to the focus shift from formal education to informal and non-formal education and invites us to rethink the knowledge, skills, and capacities we all need as world citizens. EADI, the European Association of Development Research and Training Institutes takes the leading role in the work on Knowledge Exchange Partnerships which serve to ensure a free flow of information and best practices between research institutions and civil society organisations. This is done by building new and strengthening existing regional partnerships. With a series of events, workshops and conferences over the next years, we are contributing to bridge gaps between civil society organisations and academia. The regional Knowledge Exchange Partnerships in Iberia, Northern Europe and South-Eastern Europe will be open to interested civil society organisations and academic institutions. Further information on the Bridge47 website<http://The> Purpose The purpose of this post is three-fold. Firstly, it is to establish a regional GCE Knowledge Exchange Partnership mainly in the United Kingdom and Denmark - called Northern Europe partnership - by building a network of practitioners and scholars. Secondly, it is central in organising three regional events to exchange practical and academic knowledge on GCE. Thirdly, it makes sure that ideas developed, and knowledge gathered within the regional network is fed into the process of creating a massive open online course (MOOC).

Main Deliverables * Organising three regional Knowledge Exchange events. * Acting as a regional contact person for Knowledge Exchange Partnerships. * Support the content development of a massive open online course. Support This work will be supported by the Knowledge Exchange Officer, who is responsible for the general coordination of Knowledge Exchange Partnerships within all three regions – namely Iberia; South-Eastern Europe and Northern Europe countries.
