global youth work project aims to ensure that global citizenship
and sustainable development education form an integral part of youth
work provision in Wales. Cyfanfyd works closely with partners such
as the Council in Wales for Voluntary Youth Services (CWYVS) and
Youth and Adult Learning Opportunities (YALO) to promote global
youth work or ESDGC in youth work.
 We
provide specialist support and advice to partner agencies to develop
global youth work initiatives. We also develop and run global youth
work training courses for practitioners and trainers Wales-wide.
We advocate on behalf of global youth work practitioners, and lobby
for resources and support amongst decision-makers.
We also run seminars, conferences
and networking events around global youth work themes. In the past
this has involved liasing closely with our counterparts in England,
Scotland and Northern Ireland as well as in wider European arenas.

The aim of this Guide is
to provide a clear explanation of what global youth work is
and how it fits with mainstream youth work in Wales. The Guide
also aims to inspire and motivate readers by what is already
happening throughout Wales, and aims to develop readers' confidence
to either begin to, or further develop their own global youth
work practice.
This Guide is now available
for download.
