Code Network Meeting

Date: Wednesday 29 November, 10.00am - 4.00pm 

Location: Morrison Hotel, Ormond Quay lower, Dublin 1 

 

IDEA is looking forward to welcoming all members of the Code of Good Practice for Development Education to our upcoming Code network meeting on Wednesday 29 November, in the Morrison Hotel, Ormond Quay lower, Dublin 1. One of the commitments in joining the Code, is to also contribute to the Community of Practice for this Code including sharing successes and learning with other Code members and attending Code network meetings.


Susan Gallwey and Gráinne O'Neill will facilitate this meeting, and both are members of the Code panel who support IDEA in providing feedback to members on their Code self-assessments.

 

Current practice in the Code community is to run one Code network meeting online each year, and one in person. Our last Code network meeting was online on 26 May. 

 

As we now have over 40 Code members, there are places for a maximum of two attendees from each Code member. If other colleagues from the same organisation wish to join, we will offer any remaining places to them once registration has closed. 

 

The event runs from 10.30am - 4.00pm with tea/coffee available from 10.00am. 

Lunch will also be served. Please let us know of any dietary requirements when registering. 

For any questions, please contact code@ideaonline.ie

At the end of March, IDEA staff and representatives from three IDEA members travelled to Riga, Latvia, for a two-day event marking the launch of IDEA’s Erasmus+ project with our partner LAPAS (Latvian Platform for Development Cooperation) focused on the IDEA Code of Good Practice The project’s core objective is to enhance the quality of global citizenship education (GCE) at local , national and European levels. Central to this work is the creation of a Code of Good Practice for Latvia based on learning from the IDEA Code that will support Latvian GCE practitioners, including teachers, NGOs, youth workers and others, by fostering a common understanding and approach to GCE. This represents the first piloting of the IDEA Code in an international context. The new IDEA task group for the project, made up of Code members, alongside IDEA staff, are supporting LAPAS members to adapt the Code for the Latvian national context by sharing our own experiences and learnings from the Code and GCE in Ireland. The event in Riga was the first in-person gathering of the project, bringing together LAPAS and IDEA members. This face-to-face interaction allowed us to begin the process of knowledge exchange, and mutual learning which will spread the Code’s reach and strengthen our GCE practice. IDEA was represented in Riga by Dean Oke (CDYS (Cloyne Diocesan Youth Service), Georgina Eastaugh (Concern Worldwide) and Claire Glavey (Global Village), alongside IDEA staff Elaine and Aine.
