Global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate emergency campaigns and the
Black Lives Matter movements have recently posed challenges for educationalists about
their role, particularly in relation to promoting positive visions of the future.
Development education and global learning has a major contribution to make within
these agendas, particularly if it brings into its practices the ideas of Paulo Freire
and his concept of the pedagogy of hope. Hope can often be considered an idealistic
and utopian term, but if it is grounded in real life issues and challenges, then it
can provide a valuable approach to learning about global issues. Recent examples in
the UK and the initiative by UNESCO on Futures of Education demonstrate ways in which
questions can be posed about the future of education that can be empowering to all
learners.
