GLOBAL PLATFORMS

“Being in the Global Change course allowed me to understand the importance of working together in groups and how far you can get as a team. You learn how to plan and jump-start a campaign – your campaign is suddenly on TV, in the newspaper and on the radio. I don’t have the words to describe these moments. I can just say – you have to live it!”

The Global Platforms are run by ActionAid Denmark and part of ActionAid International. Learn more about how we send American participants to the Global Platforms on: http://www.training4change.org/usa

For more information, please email Ann-Sofie Jespersen at

The Global Platforms set the frame for youth doing global activism. The Global Platforms function as activism hubs and innovative learning centers on creative international campaigning, voluntarism, solidarity and citizenship.

“Think Global – Act Local” is what we believe. Social change will come when youth around the world come together and engage as local activists with global visions.

We motivate youth through our trainings to take action in their communities and create social change. The trainings are participatory, experience based and fun trainings – all developed on the basis of global experiences.

TRAINING YOUTH FOR SOCIAL CHANGE!
