About the program

The Global Action Circles (GACs) is a virtual peer-to-peer program where small intergenerational groups of activists explore an education-related theme in depth for five months, emerging with individual and collective projects. . These groups are guided by Youth Weavers who help them develop their ideas, skills, and projects by exploring a personal learning question. The learning journey culminates with a final Showcase at our annual Learning Festival.

This program was designed in partnership with Huddlecraft.
