Global Educators Program (GEP)

World Savvy offers a range of professional development services designed to help educators mainstream global issues content into classroom instruction.

The Global Educators Program builds educators' content knowledge, skills, and capacity to consistently integrate contemporary world affairs into teaching, in all subject areas. We provide direct services to middle and high schools throughout the Bay Area, and leverage this work to promote systemic change in education so that every classroom, in every school, can prepare youth for success and engagement in the global community in the 21st century. In addition, we provide online resources for global education that can be used by any teacher.
