Our training draws on participatory methodologies, competency-based learning and transformative pedagogy to build capability among educators, civil society actors and corporate partners. Learning is practice-oriented and designed to support critical thinking, reflection and application in real-world contexts.

​

We provide continuing professional development for teachers and non-formal educators across the UK and East Africa, with a focus on global learning, climate education and gender equity. Our Global Learning Pathway training, developed through the Connecting Classrooms for Global Learning (CCGL) programme, supports inquiry-led, interdisciplinary approaches that strengthen critical and creative thinking.

​

Our research is applied, participatory and policy-relevant. We generate evidence to inform decision-making on issues including social acceptance of resource extraction, gender equality and social inclusion (GESI), coastal adaptation and education reform. By integrating local knowledge with international standards, we co-create insights that shape strategy and inform policy.

​

As partners in Horizon Europe and other international research initiatives, we lead and contribute to research on social licence to operate (SLO), sustainability frameworks and the role of education in sustainable transitions, with a strong emphasis on translating research into practice.
