Global citizenship: from public support to active participation Year of publication: 2012 Author: Christine Carabain | Shelena Keulemans | Marije van Gent | Gabi Spitz Corporate author: National Committee for International Cooperation and Sustainable Development (NCDO) This publication explores the concept of global citizenship by drawing on the most relevant, mainly scientific, literature. This exploration will in the coming years be the basis for NCDO’s programmes in the area of research, staff training, and knowledge sharing. NCDO has the important task of engaging people in these two major changes in perspective: what does it mean, how important is it to us, how can we contribute to it? NCDO considers it its responsibility to raise awareness amongst Dutch citizens of the growing connection and mutual dependency between people across the globe, as well as to make them aware of the opportunities they have to help tackle global issues. In other words: NCDO aims to advance the global dimension of citizenship in the Netherlands. But what exactly is that global dimension of citizenship? Despite growing awareness of the importance of global citizenship, a clear and broadly accepted definition of the concept is still lacking (Hart, 2011). To date the concept is often explained by using examples and focus areas. This publication will present the definition of global citizenship that NCDO will employ in the coming period.
Global citizenship: from public support to active participation Year of publication: 2012 Author: Christine Carabain | Shelena Keulemans | Marije van Gent | Gabi Spitz Corporate author: National Committee for International Cooperation and Sustainable Development (NCDO) Cette publication explore le concept de citoyenneté mondiale en abordant essentiellement le côté scientifique, la littérature la plus pertinente,. Cette exploration dans les années à venir sera la base pour les programmes de NCDO dans le domaine de la recherche, la formation du personnel, et le partage des connaissances. NCDO a la tâche importante d'engager les gens dans ces deux grands changements en perspective: qu'est-ce que cela veut dire, combien il est important pour nous, comment pouvons-nous y contribuer? NCDO estime qu'il lui incombe de sensibiliser les citoyens néerlandais de la connexion croissante et la dépendance mutuelle entre les peuples à travers le monde, ainsi que pour leur faire connaître les possibilités qu'ils ont pour aider à résoudre les problèmes mondiaux. En d'autres termes: NCDO vise à faire progresser la dimension globale de la citoyenneté aux Pays-Bas. Mais qu'est-ce que la dimension mondiale de la citoyenneté? Malgré la prise de conscience de l'importance de la citoyenneté mondiale, une définition claire et largement acceptée du concept fait toujours défaut (Hart, 2011). À ce jour, le concept est souvent expliqué à l'aide des exemples et des domaines d'intervention. Cette publication présentera la définition de la citoyenneté mondiale qui NCDO emploiera dans la période à venir.

Narratives: The Journey of Food Year of publication: 2024 Corporate author: InteRed This is an interactive game that raises the question of how food is also influenced by the social construction of racism, characterising its positive or negative qualities, depending on the gastronomic culture to which it belongs. In this sense, this material tries to show how food has migrated throughout history, enriching its use in each culture it became part of and acquiring new nuances that made it grow and become richer. Curiously, when it comes to people, the same consideration is not given. On the other hand, the spread of some foods also has more negative elements in their history, such as the fact that their mass consumption has been in exchange for the work of enslaved people on plantations.
Narrativas: El viaje de los alimentos Year of publication: 2024 Corporate author: InteRed Este es un juego interactivo que plantea cómo los alimentos también se ven influidos por la construcción social del racismo caracterizando sus cualidades positivas o negativas, en función de la cultura gastronómica a la que pertenecen. En este sentido, este material trata de mostrar cómo los alimentos han migrado a través de su historia enriqueciéndose su uso en cada cultura de la que pasaban a formar parte y adquiriendo nuevos matices que les hacían crecer y enriquecerse. Curiosamente, cuando se trata de las personas, no se recibe la misma consideración. Por otra parte, la propagación de algunos alimentos también tiene elementos más negativos en su historia, como por ejemplo que su consumo masivo haya sido a cambio del trabajo de personas esclavizadas en las plantaciones.
