Welcome to Cyfanfyd
Cyfanfyd is a national membership organisation working to promote education for sustainable development and global citizenship (ESDGC) in Wales. We support organisations working in all fields of education helping them to incorporate a global dimension into their work.
Our aim is the creation of a confident and outward looking Wales in which all have an understanding of their rights and responsibilities as global citizens.
Cyfanfyd is active in the fields of global youth work, lifelong learning and the formal school-based education.
Cyfanfyd also acts as a representative lobbying organisation to ensure that global learning remains a priority for government organisations in Wales.
Cyfanfyd membership is open to any organisation interested in global citizenship education.

DFID cuts development awareness projects - Cyfanfyd Response
This announcement, especially the “suspension” of the Global Learning Engagement fund, is a major threat to the ability of organisations involved in the delivery of Global Learning/ESDGC in Wales to carry on their work. There will also, inevitably, be concerns about the Global Learning strategy for Wales, involving work in the school sector, which has not yet been finalised. Cyfanfyd plans to respond by :
- Keeping members and stakeholders informed of developments and what actions they can take
- Seeking to clarify the funding situation with DFID officials
- Bringing together members and stakeholders to discuss the situation and a collective response
