In a united Europe, a new idea for school education is beginning to form, current issues are being discussed issues that remained outside the curriculum of formal education. These new topics in education are a response to the active processes of globalization and are united by a new goal - inclusion and diversity, participation in democratic life, protection of the environment and climate change, development of digital skills are all called by a common term - Global education. Today it is important for students to know that we live in an interconnected world and any problem, such as the pandemic, comes to us very quickly because we are part of the global system. The same is the case with environmental problems. Climate migration is expected to intensify in the coming decades. Today, the system of professional education and training in Bulgaria is facing new challenges: to make vocational education and training a major factor in skills development - the "global currency of the 21st century economy" that brings benefits to all: learners, the workforce, businesses, the economy.
