Cultivating "Global Citizens": Relevant Photographs of Current Curriculum Construction: Rational Thinking and Practical Exploration of International Understanding Education Year of publication: 2018 Author: Pan Guowei The international understanding of education has quietly emerged. Its purpose is to enable students to grow into “global citizens” and promote human harmony. Based on this aim, schools should make a difference in the experience of students experiencing foreign languages, so that students can gradually form the necessary qualities of “global citizenship” in expanding international knowledge, enhancing the common prosperity of the world, and improving the ability of foreign activities.
Realization of the Sustainable Development Goals by, for and with Persons with Disabilities (UN Flagship Report on Disability and Development 2018) Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: United Nations (UN) Realization of the Sustainable Development Goals by, for and with persons with disabilities 'Disability and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development' this report represents the first UN systemwide effort to examine disability and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development at the global level. The report reviews data, policies and programmes and identifies good practices; and uses the evidence it reviewed to outline recommended actions to promote the realization of the SDGs for persons with disabilities. The report shows that despite the progress made in recent years, persons with disabilities continue to face numerous barriers to their full inclusion and participation in the life of their communities. It sheds light on their disproportionate levels of poverty, their lack of access to education, health services, employment, their under-representation in decision-making and political participation. This is particularly the case for women and girls with disabilities. Main barriers to inclusion entail discrimination and stigma on the ground of disability, lack of accessibility to physical and virtual environments, lack of access to assistive technology, essential services, rehabilitation and support for independent living that are critical for the full and equal participation of persons with disabilities as agents of change and beneficiaries of development. Data and statistics compiled and analysed in the present report indicate that persons with disabilities are not yet sufficiently included in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the SDGs.
A metro map illustrated in the 17 sustainable development goals Year of publication: 2018 Author: Rembert Jonckheere Corporate author: ASPnet Flanders (Belgium) “Tackling one SDG… is tackling all of them!”This metro map is a complex illustration of the 17 sustainable development goals. With different kinds of topics as service stations and the SDG’s connecting them, it shows how the goals can relate to each other, and thus it emphasises their holistic nature. I do not pretend to be completely exhaustive or correct. Probably one can add more links and topics, but this map could be helpful in education or in other institutions as a source of inspiration to start up projects within the framework of the sustainable development goals.
