Supporting Change in Practice: Case Studies on the Use of the ACER-APCEIU Global Citizenship Education Monitoring Toolkit: Country Case-Republic of Korea Year of publication: 2025 Author: Suyeon Park | Sunmi Ji | Yoonyoung Lee Corporate author: APCEIU APCEIU is pleased to announce the release of its new publications, Supporting Change in Practice: Case Studies on the Use of the ACER-APCEIU Global Citizenship Education Monitoring Toolkit, which shares key findings from the research conducted in Australia and the Republic of Korea. The two reports, based on case studies from two countries, build upon the three-phase Asia-Pacific GCED Monitoring Project (2022–2024) jointly undertaken by ACER and APCEIU to strengthen monitoring and evaluation of GCED and support progress toward SDG 4.7 across the region. The three phases of the initiative identified enabling conditions for GCED, validated the regional GCED Monitoring Framework, and developed the ACER-APCEIU GCED Monitoring Toolkit. The reports for each phase can be found here: Phase I, Phase II, and Phase III. The newly released reports move the project forward by examining how the Toolkit can be practically applied in real educational settings. The study aimed to examine how the Toolkit could be used to support collaboration among key education stakeholders—teachers, school leaders, and education supervisors—in 1) goal setting, 2) planning, 3) implementing, and 4) reflecting on GCED practices. Through this process, the research sought to understand how the Toolkit could help strengthen the connection between policy commitments and everyday educational practice, supporting teachers, school leaders, and system leaders to embed GCED more systematically and sustainably within their existing framework. Both studies conducted in Australia and the Republic of Korea have been guided by the following research questions: 1. How does the GCED Monitoring Toolkit support key stakeholder groups to collaboratively embed GCED in policy and practice? a. What aspects of the Toolkit enable or challenge stakeholders to achieve their GCED goals and objectives? b. How do key stakeholders perceive its usefulness? 2. Are there any aspects of the Toolkit that stakeholders would change to improve its usefulness in supporting the implementation and contextualisation of GCED in policy and practice?The reports demonstrate how a GCED Monitoring Toolkit can be translated into actionable processes within real educational settings. It offers valuable insights for policymakers, school leaders, teachers, and researchers aiming to monitor and strengthen GCED implementation and systematically embed GCED within their educational ecosystems.

Rethinking Global Citizenship Education: From Asia-Pacific Perspectives Year of publication: 2024 Author: Sicong Chen | Suzanne S. Choo | Thippapan Chuosavasdi | Aigul Kulnazarova | Mousumi Mukherjee | Tania Saeed | Tanya Wendt Samu | Kyujoo Seol | Jun Teng Corporate author: APCEIU Rethinking Global Citizenship Education from Asia-Pacific Perspectives aims to rethink and reinterpret global citizenship and GCED in light of the cultural and historical contexts and political and economic conditions of the Asia-Pacific region. The edited volume offers an in-depth exploration of global citizenship and GCED through the contributions of nine scholars who examine the subject from a range of cultural, historical, and theoretical perspectives. Each chapter brings to light the complexities involved in fostering global citizenship in an era defined by both growing interconnectedness and intensifying political, social, and economic divides.This book is structured into three parts. The first part examines how various philosophical traditions from the Asia-Pacific region, such as Confucian cosmopolitanism, Tagore’s mindset, Pacific indigenous wisdom, and the Tianxia system, can inform and enrich the concept of GCED. The second part delves into the foundational ideas of global citizenship embedded within Asian religious and spiritual traditions, including Buddhist and Sufi perspectives. The third part provides case studies from Central and East Asia, highlighting the practical application of GCED in local contexts such as Kazakhstan, China, Japan, and South Korea. Together, these chapters offer a comprehensive analysis of the evolving challenges, opportunities, and innovations within GCED from Asia-Pacific viewpoints, emphasising the need for education systems to adapt and respond to the multifaceted nature of global citizenship.
