One World Zone Evaluation
|
|
|
The overall aim of the One World Zone (OWZ) within in SuperClubsPLUS and GoldStarCafe was to engage young people in development issues and to promote awareness of these issues and fostering increased understanding of our global mutual interdependence. DID IT WORK?
A was study commissioned by the Department for International Development to assess the impact of the One World Zone (OWZ). The final report is now published.
The OWZ exists as a separate site within the on-line community and was designed to develop awareness among young people about current global issues and also engage them in critical thinking. The evaluation sought to identify whether this had led to attitudinal and behavioural change of a positive nature.
"The project was excellent at raising children’s awareness of their individual role in global issues and our mutual interdependence. One of the most impressive features of the site was the way in which it empowered children to take action, motivating them to commit to take action that would contribute to a more just world. It is the view of the evaluator that these attitudinal and behavioural changes will persist through these children’s lifetimes, making them better and more responsible citizens." - University of Hertfordshire
