This route spotlights tools that support global learning through collaboration, creativity, and purposeful engagement. Each stop features a platform that helps students and educators connect across cultures, design solutions for real-world challenges, and amplify diverse voices. From inclusive communication tools to project-based learning and multilingual storytelling, this curated path offers practical ways to bring global perspectives into the classroom and foster meaningful, connected learning.

To guide your own assessment of these technologies, consider asking vendors how their tools have been implemented to empower students in collaborating across cultures or taking meaningful action on global issues. Also evaluate in what ways each product supports learners in exploring worldwide challenges and designing solutions that matter beyond the classroom walls.
