The GET-It's Global Education Time project, lead by CISP and co-funded by the European Union, offers history teachers and students aged 13-19 an innovative school textbook based on the Global History approach.
Written and published as part of the Get Up and Goals! project, the 3-volume "A Global History of Humanity" was edited by CISP and it has already been downloaded tens of thousands of times.
Most school textbooks still focus on shaping "the national citizen", someone well-versed in their country's history but lacking the tools to understand and engage with major global challenges.
This global geo-history textbook takes a radically different approach.

Today, we sit down with Luigi Grando, Director of the Latin America and Caribbean Geographic Area, to discuss development and change in the region.
"My engagement with Latin America was solidified through a post-course internship in Colombia with CISP. This experience was exceptionally rewarding, offering a blend of intellectual stimulation and practical application.
Subsequently, a pivotal phone call from Carlo Tassara, a CISP founder, while I was in London just before Christmas 1994: How about an opportunity to work in Colombia? By New Year's Eve I was in Cartagena. Carlo served as an invaluable mentor, providing guidance, support, and instruction. Our relationship evolved into a deep and meaningful friendship, and CISP became “my” story, too.
I also greatly admired Paolo Dieci, for his unique vision and style. Life involves an element of chance, and I consider myself fortunate to have had the privilege of learning and working alongside the both of them."
