Globi-Trotter is a board game for secondary and vocational education that allows students to develop intercultural and international skills in a playful way. In 60 to 90 minutes, they work in small teams on recognisable situations, dilemmas and discussion questions about working with people from other cultures. The game can be used immediately in the classroom, requires little preparation and fits in perfectly with global citizenship and internationalisation within your school.
