Global Wednesdays is a series of international virtual academic meetings that seek to open spaces for dialogue to discuss the connection between intercultural learning, global citizenship and other issues of interest in society.
During the events, held on the third Wednesday of the month, Latin American teachers, experts and actors of the educational system in the region discuss and promote the development of Global Citizenship in individuals as a fundamental competence to achieve a more connected, sustainable and respectful world of cultural differences.
Global Wednesdays emerged as a response of ALEI to the need for virtual connection between teachers, derived from the needs caused by the pandemic. In 2020 we held six sessions aimed at young people and five aimed at teachers, reaching more than 6,000 people in Latin America.
