What are they?
The World Vision GLCs aim to empower students with the skills they need to transform words into action - to become the kind of leaders and globally-minded citizens we need now more than ever.
Where and when?
World Vision is running separate GLCs for upper primary and upper secondary students in every state capital and some regional centres. They start at 8:45am and finish at 3:20pm. The GLCs are one-day events. Check the brochures and registration forms for details.
How do they work?
This year, World Vision's GLC's will delve deeper than ever before into issues of global poverty, by inviting student leaders to immerse themselves in the world and work of child labourers.
Through simulation experience students will:
- Intimately experience what a child labourer might feel and think
- Learn about the economic realities that drive child labour
- Understand the ways in which we are all connected to child labour via the global consumer market
Through learning, listening and discussing issues students will:
- Gain skills, tools and confidence to be leaders in creating change
- Make decisions as consumers that can bring about change
- Be inspired to make a difference.
