Sometimes, the most impactful lessons emerge from the simplest tools. In the latest episode of the Irish Global Solidarity in 100 Objects podcast, host Ciara Regan speaks with Lizzy Noone, Education Officer at WorldWise Global Schools. Together, they discuss how a single ball of string can be used in global citizenship education as a way to explore our interconnectedness, and our shared responsibility to uphold human rights.

“The ball of string serves as a metaphor: every action we take is part of a larger global tapestry.”
