This activity was produced by the Association for Science Education in partnership with Practical Action as part of the Global Learning Programme. The GLP is a ground-breaking new programme which will create a national network of like-minded schools, committed to equipping their students to succeed in a globalised world by helping them to deliver effective teaching and learning about international development and global issues at Key Stages 2 and 3. ASE is providing the science education support for the Global Learning Programme which is funded by the Department for International Development.
