[Global Citizenship - Mount Mercy College @devedmmc]

The first of our Culture Day activities! Rm 18 had a Palestinian food party, and learned a bit about that part of the world from their classmate who’s from there.

Today’s debate…

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women! 👩

How do you think this problem could be tackled❓

Tomorrow is #WorldToiletDay . Our 1st year students have been making posters to highlight the importance of water and sanitation. Lots of children (especially adolescent girls) don’t go to school because of a lack of toilets facilities.

A great video on the importance of toilets for #WorldToiletDay tomorrow. Also great to show the difference governments can make for their people if they make smart choices (rather than relying on charities 👍) https://t.co/0g2PVYewXh

Interesting read for school involved in global citizenship work. There’s a need to eventually move beyond awareness raising towards action.

[DigitalCharityLab @DigiCharityLab]

I've been pondering a particular issue in the non-profit sector for a while. That issue is 'awareness raising' campaigns. I've written this article to sum up what I see as the problems, and some suggested solutions. I'd love to hear what you think! https://t.co/a23BbMnjtE
