About the Global Centre
The Global Centre aims to work with people of all ages, from all parts of Devon and from all different backgrounds:
- To understand the links between our own lives and those of people throughout the world
- To increase our understanding of the complex forces that shape our lives in an age of globalisation
- To work together to bring about positive change and take control of our own lives
- To promote ways of living together that are sustainable and just
The Global Centre is run by Devon Development Education, one of many Development Education Centres in the UK which seek to advance the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to create a more just and sustainable world. Use the links on the right to find out more about Devon Development Education.
Why a Global Centre for Devon and Exeter
Devon has the largest land area of any county in England, with just three urban areas – Plymouth, Torbay and Exeter. Amongst its population only 0.6% are from Black and Minority Ethnic groups (BME) and most of these are concentrated in urban areas.
