Are you interested in social, environmental, and economic issues both at home and abroad? If so, you should consider applying for a place on this year’s SDG Advocate Training, which is part of Saolta, an innovative Development Education programme geared toward those already operating within the Adult and Community Education Sector.

• The SDG Advocate Training offers an 8-month blended project approach (online and in-person). Participants will increase their knowledge and understanding of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and identify their role as  Active Citizens in the community.

•  The SDG Advocate Training brings together a team of 26 adult educators with different life experience, skills and perspectives to share in the motivation, design and action for a more just and sustainable future.

• Individual and group Coaching and Mentoring will be provided throughout the journey, to support the design and delivery of informed Action Projects.

Development Perspectives has partnered with AONTAS, Concern Worldwide, Irish Rural Link and the Department of Adult and Community Education at Maynooth University to deliver SAOLTA, a strategic partnership with Irish Aid. Saolta’s goal is “increased accessibility, quality and effectiveness of development education within the adult and community education sector”
