What is the Internationalism Alliance?
Our pledge
We want to offer every child and young person in the United Kingdom, whatever their background or interests, the opportunity to learn from – and connect with – other people in the UK and around the world.
The UK’s future will be shaped by our international links and the way we work with partners to tackle the challenges facing us all.
We pledge to do what we can to give our young people the understanding, skills and confidence to make those connections for themselves – to enrich their lives and the lives of everyone in the UK.
Join the Internationalism Alliance
Young people and partners in the UK can join the Internationalism Alliance.
Partners will be part of a community of organisations working with young people, including British Council. We want to make real change through our work and collaboration.
