VIDEA (Victoria International Development Education Association) is committed to ending global poverty and creating a more just and equitable world. They work with youth and community in Canada, to build lasting relationships with overseas partners, and advocate for global responsibility.
VIDEA provides learning opportunities through special events, seminars, workshops, tours and conferences, for schools and for the general public. We conduct research and publish quality learning resources that are used in Canada, the United States, and overseas.
VIDEA is one of Canada's oldest global education centres. We facilitate communication, cooperation and strategic networking among Canadian groups working for global justice, peace and sustainable development, linking local and international issues with community initiatives.
VIDEA produces a ‘Learning Resources Catalogue’ with a wide scope of community development and social justice resources (unit and lesson plans) applicable to the elementary and secondary classroom which are available to download on their website.
VIDEA has been involved in the promotion and delivery of global education in Victoria and the Southern Vancouver Island area since 1977. VIDEA has actively engaged teachers, students, youth and the general public in learning about-and becoming involved in-international issues, with a particular focus on the need for socially just and sustainable global development.
