What We Do
Globally Connected does the following
At Globally Connected, we apply the Building Bridges methodology across all our dialogue sessions, workshops, and initiatives. This approach brings together individuals and organizations from diverse backgrounds to explore key social issues and co-create solutions. Our methodology is implemented through five interconnected areas of work
Foster Collaboration
We create safe, inclusive spaces for people from all backgrounds to interact, build trust, and collaborate. Through facilitated dialogue and cross-border networking, participants strengthen their relationships and deepen their understanding of each other. These spaces connect grassroots actors with wider European networks, bringing community perspectives into broader conversations and policymaking processes.
Identify Critical Issues and Challenges
Through guided discussions and interactive activities, we support participants in identifying the pressing issues and challenges faced by refugee, migrant, and diaspora communities across Europe. These insights form the basis for our community-based research and are reflected in our publications and media outputs—including policy papers and advocacy materials co-created with community members.
Promote Knowledge Sharing
Our sessions are platforms for sharing knowledge, lived experiences, and promising practices. We highlight success stories and case studies that foster intercultural understanding and inspire others to act similarly. These insights are captured and amplified through social media, reports, and community-driven documentation.
Encourage Individual and Collective Social Action
We support participants in turning ideas into action through small-scale grants that fund local initiatives. These community-led projects focus on active citizenship, peacebuilding, entrepreneurship, and countering hate speech—empowering individuals and groups to lead positive change in their communities.
Strengthen Capacity
To sustain and scale these efforts, we offer tailored capacity-building support. This includes joint learning sessions, workshops, and technical guidance. Members receive accompaniment throughout their initiatives, with opportunities to strengthen their skills in advocacy, fundraising, and partnership building all aligned with the values of European citizenship and democracy.
