This project is managed by Global Link and funded by the Arts Council and North West Global Education Network to develop the capacity of artists with roots in the global south (i.e. Africa, Asia and Latin America) to work in schools and the wider community. Read more...
Global Link has secured extended funding for up to 20 schools in the North West who would like a global artist to visit their school.
During 2011, Global Link subsidised 40 schools in the North West £100 towards a global dimension artist to deliver workshops. This funding has been extended until July 2012 and is limited to 20 subisidies.
The funding is provided for artists to address any of the eight key concepts of the global dimension
- Diversity
- Sustainable Development
- Human Rights
- Social Justice
- Conflict Resolution
- Global Citizenship
- Global Interdependence
