Abstract

There are many visions of global teacher education emerging in an increasingly interconnecting world. Innovative educational strategies which recognise the changing world we live within and involve teacher educators, teachers and learners in creating norms that address inequalities, support nonviolence, promote social responsibility, and foster equitable relationships are crucial if we are to achieve lasting change. Gender-based violence is endemic across the globe. Though a global problem, certain types of violence are considered more widespread. Informed by research findings from a GCRF project, led by the None in Three Centre for the Global Prevention of Gender-based Violence, this presentation outlines a participatory and collaborative approach, to co-creating globally relevant and inclusive learning resources, that teachers and teacher educators can use to engage learners with challenging gender-based violence constructively. This presentation features an inclusive approach to designing learning resources for tackling and preventing child marriage and sexual coercion in Uganda, child sexual abuse in Jamaica, and gender bias as an enabler of violence against women and girls in India. Aligned with principles of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3, 4 and 5, we focus on holistic development through education provision and the enhancement of learners’ skills, knowledge, attitude, and capability, rooted in their lived experience. In a global context for lifelong learning, this presentation considers how integration of such learning resources may speak to teachers and teacher educators about possibilities for collaborative learning, co-creation, and embedding wellbeing, self-care, social justice and social responsibility in inclusive teaching and learning practice.
