The Taksvärkki campaign has a strong Global citizenship education component
The goal of Taksvärkki’s global citizenship education is to raise a sense of global responsibility in Finnish youth.
Taksvärkki’s volunteer Global Educators visit elementary and secondary schools in different parts of Finland and hold workshops on youth advocacy, equality, discrimination against people with disabilities and children’s rights. These participatory workshops are complemented by high-quality learning materials and study packages for teachers.
Currently the learning materials of Who cares? campaign are not available in English. You can find the campaign’s learning material in Finnish and the same learning material in Swedish.
