UK partners

Eye to Eye is a collaborative venture. Partners bring valuable experience and expertise to the process of resource creation and awareness-raising.

These partnerships help us to fulfil our aims, do justice to the rich materials we have from the Eye to Eye photographers and present child labour as a valid educational issue. Why don’t you join us?

UK Partner Organisations

These are our main participating partners in the UK. There is great potential for the range of partners to keep growing.

• Manchester Development Education Project (Manchester DEP)
  Manchester Development Education Project (DEP) is an educational charity in the north west of England. We work with partners locally, nationally and across the globe. We also run projects to develop teaching practice, improve teacher training and create new resources for classroom activities.
• Teach First
  Teach First supports top graduates to work and train as teachers in challenging secondary schools, whilst also learning to lead. Teach First teachers not only qualify as teachers over the two year programme, but develop professionally through leadership training, internships (for example at Save the Children), coaching and networking. Volunteer coaches support participants as they increase their impact within the school. Teach First teachers are ideally placed to implement innovative resources, and help us develop them to an excellent standard.
• Humanities Education Centre (HEC)
  The Humanities Education Centre promotes the values, aims and principles of development education and global citizenship through all areas of education. HEC have been involved in many projects with secondary schools, and currently are developing a link between Eye to Eye and East End Eye, a project and website, to reflect the diversity, and share the identity of young people in the East End of London.
• Development Education Association (DEA)
  DEA promotes education for a just and sustainable world and believes education has a key role to play in the UK to help people understand the world around them and to enable them to improve it. We have a national network of some 250 member organisations that share this commitment and we work with them to change education in the UK for the better.
• Open Space for Dialogue and Enquiry (OSDE)
  The OSDE methodology supports the creation of open safe spaces for dialogue and enquiry about global issues and perspectives focusing on interdependence.?In these spaces, people are invited to engage critically with their own and with different perspectives, think independently and make informed and responsible decisions about how they want to think and what they want to do.
  
  This methodological approach supports many of the skills and values that have begun to be more prevalent in teaching and learning – such as openness to others’ opinions, ability to question your own views and justify them and critical thinking. It is also in line with our approach in Eye to Eye.
• The Geographical Association
  The Geographical Association (GA) is a subject association with a mission to further the teaching of geography and to communicate the value of learning geography for all.
