Education for Global Citizenship: Promoting Democracy Year of publication: 2019 Author: Manuela Mesa Corporate author: Autonomous University of Madrid | Red Iberoamericana de Investigación sobre Cambio y Eficacia Escolar (RINACE) This paper makes a reflection on the role of education in the current international context, marked by profound changes and by a situation of uncertainty and instability and reverse in rights. It discusses the various interpretative frameworks that explain the current world and that are articulated around the global-local axis and ethnic-national identities and multiple identities. In a world characterized by the complexity and speed of changes, it is very important to overcome the the compartmentalization of knowledge in areas such as mathematics, social, language, etc and look for global approaches. Education as a transformative practice cannot be outside of the major challenges facing humanity at the national and multilateral. The 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals gives opportunities for the consolidation of the Education for Global Citizenship. 
Social Education in the Face of Hate Speech: Intercultural Competences in University Education (Journal of Supranational Policies of Education; Vol. 1, No. 19) Year of publication: 2024 Author: Teresa Rebolledo Gámez | Rocío Rodríguez-Casado Corporate author: Autonomous University of Madrid The spread of hate speech against immigrants, people of foreign origin or ethnic minorities is one of the most serious threats to peaceful coexistence in today's society. This is especially true in media contexts and social networks, where the boundaries between the right to freedom of expression and hate speech or hate crimes are often blurred. Therefore, we need educational professionals with intercultural competences whohave strategies to combat these discourses. In this article, we present an experience of a pedagogical innovation that works on these competences in the Degree in Social Education, which received very positive evaluations in terms of improving conceptual and attitudinal learning, as well as the acquisition of socio-educational strategies to act against the emergence of hate speech. On the basis of this experience, we reflect on different aspects that should be present in intercultural university training in the field of hate speech and hate crimes, concluding that there is still an urgent need for universities to promote the training of socio-educational professionals based on a human rights, equality, justice, culture of peace and non-violence approach. 
The Paraguayan Educational System Facing the Social Challenges of the 21st Century: A Historical Evolution Towards the Educational Goals Program 2021 Year of publication: 2018 Author: Carlos Novella García Corporate author: Autonomous University of Madrid In the summary the author sustains: "In 2011 the Iberoamerican States Organization for Education and Culture assumed the responsibility of coordinatin the actions and follow a challenging educative programa called "Educative Goals 2021: the education that we want for the generations of the bicentenary". This article pretends to learn the full details of this program and analyze the progresses and achievements made by Paraguay, one of the countries that signed this project. Different national and international reports were analysed in order to know, in detail and in a reliable way, the results of the application and development of the eleven goals of the program regarding education in the Paraguayan context. Nevertheless, due to the extension of this article, the authors focused on three of the eleven goals and obtained very relevant results concerning the absences and achievements of the objectives of these goals. The data evidences considerable progress in the education policies since 2011 although education, selection and professional development of teachers is still lacking development." I would add that the author highlights the importance of an international and Iberoamerican citizenship.
