Scotdec and NHS Global Health Co-ordination Unit (GHCU) have joint authored a perspective article within Issue 34 of Policy and Practice: A Development Education Review, celebrating work undertaken as part of the Bridge 47 project to emphasise the transformative education approaches of global citizenship education (GCE) and encourage local active global citizenship within NHS Scotland.

The focus of the work was to emphasise the transformative education approaches of global citizenship education (GCE) and encourage local active global citizenship within NHS Scotland.
