Evaluation of the Global Student Forum
Requested by: DFID
Project documents: report

The Global Student Forum (GSF) was launched in London in July 2005 by Damaris Trust in collaboration with Christian Aid and World Vision. The aim was to provide a forum for 16 to 19 year old students to explore the issues of Global Citizenship. This evaluation report finds that the GSF programme is cost-effective, extremely well conceived and intelligently delivered. The use of peer teaching makes it sustainable. Whilst the GSF programme may not necessarily have been the catalyst for charitable engagement by schools, it has provided the impetus to students to engage with global issues in a real way. Those schools that already had charitable links have found new ways of enriching and sustaining them. Those that didn't have them, now do so. Student exchanges, especially with Africa, are becoming major events in school calendars.
