Comhlámh has been running Global Citizenship Education courses since its foundation in 1975. Our courses are for anyone who wants to interrogate “global development” and learn more about ethical communication, social and ecological justice.
These courses hit on challenging but important topics such as colonialism, privilege, saviourism and unsustainability. Our approach is to support learners to engage with and reflect on these kinds of topics and to nurture action that is grounded in awareness and the values of equality and solidarity.

Our Courses: Who are they for?
Our courses are aimed at volunteers, international development workers, staff of Volunteer Sending Agencies (VSAs), educators, youth and community workers, and anyone interested in the links between the local and the global, including facilitators of Global Citizenship Education.
In addition to supporting our member groups, we collaborate with a host of grassroots groups at the local, national, and international levels. Working on refugee and migrant rights, economic justice, environmental justice, anti-racism, and many other issues, these groups inspire our perspectives and approach to education.
OUR APPROACH: Global Citizen Education (GCE)
Comhlámh has embraced Global Citizenship Education (GCE) since its inception almost 50 years ago. GCE provides a collective platform to explore our complex, unequal and interdependent world, bridging global issues to local contexts and to ourselves. At Comhlámh, we advocate for a thoughtful approach, encouraging individuals to critically question and, in the pursuit of justice, engage with challenging topics while fostering solidarity.
Let’s Collaborate!
Comhlámh offers tailor-made courses and workshops for teams across the development, humanitarian, education, and community sectors.
Whether you want an introductory session, a deeper reflective programme, or a facilitated space for dialogue, we can shape it to suit your needs.
