Global Link is a Development Education Centre (DEC) based in Lancaster in the UK. We run workshops, exhibitions, training and other events in schools, colleges and the wider community on global citizenship issues such as diversity, human rights, community cohesion, refugees and immigration, fairtrade, climate change and sustainable development.

We use innovative and participatory methodologies to develop creative and critical thinking skills, and the motivation to create a world in which resources are more justly and sustainably shared.

We also deliver Continuing Professional Development, support and advice for teachers and other educators, youth and community workers, councils, and anyone interested in the global dimension, community cohesion or sustainable development.
