Education for 'Global Citizenship': A Framework for Discussion Year of publication: 2013 Author: Sobhi Tawil Corporate author: UNESCO The notion of ‘global citizenship’ has recently gained prominence in international development discourse with the recently-adopted United Nations Secretary-General’s Global Education First Initiative (2012). Among the three priority areas outlined in this global initiative, the third aims to ‘foster global citizenship’.The notion of ‘global citizenship’, however, remains very broad, if not contested, and consequently difficult to operationalize in education. There are two possible reasons for this. Firstly, it is unclear whether the very notion of ‘global citizenship’ is a metaphor, a contradiction of terms, or an oxymoron (Davies, 2006). Secondly, when applied to education, the notion of ‘global citizenship’ implies a certain degree of confusion. This paper discusses the following questions. What does ‘global citizenship’ possibly imply both from a legal perspective, as well as from that of collective identity, sense of belonging, and civic engagement? Is ‘global citizenship education’ (or ‘education for global citizenship’) merely an expression of a fundamental purpose of education systems? Does it also refer to a broad area of teaching and learning? If so, what are the contours of this domain? How does it relate to other often overlapping areas of learning associated with civic and political socialization?

Globalization and Identity: Cultural Diversity, Religion and Citizenship Year of publication: 2006 Author: Majid Tehranian | B. Jeannie Lum Corporate author: Transaction Publishers In the first decade of the twenty-first century, globalization and identity have emerged as the most critical challenges to world peace. This volume of Peace & Policy addresses the overarching question, "What are the effects of globalization in the areas of culture, ethnic diversity, religion, and citizenship, and how does terrorism help groups attain a sense of global identity?"Part I, "Citizenship in a Globalizing World," reexamines globalization in light of the traditions from which human civilizations have evolved. Linda Groff focuses on Samuel R. Huntington's thesis that the Cold War would be followed by a clash of civilizations. Joseph A. Camilleri traces the history of the concept of citizenship and its transformation through the ages to modern times. Kamran Mofid argues that the marketplace is not just an economic sphere but one where economic and business interests must embrace the spiritual assets of the community. Majid Tehranian raises the problem of identity and advocates the assumption of global identity, responsibility, and citizenship. Part II, "Convergence in Global Cultures," explores the complex issues of diversity in religions. Christopher Leeds, Vladimir Korobov, and Bharapt Gupt show how the reconceptualization of the world both geographically and regionally can recreate new sensibilities needed to overcome differences. Part III, "Divergence in Global Conflicts," discusses the multiple dimensions of the globalizing effects of economic expansion and political strife experienced by different cultures at local and regional levels. Audrey Kitigawa and Ade Ogunrinade use Nigeria as an example of political manipulation of religious and ethnic groups to divert attention from the real problems of social and economic marginalization. Fred Riggs looks at how the Web has become a medium in the globalization of religious movements.The authors maintain that continuing efforts for dialogue across cultural and religious boundaries in today's interreligious and interfaith organizations can become a force for healing.

Comment être citoyen du monde? Year of publication: 2015 Author: Radhi Meddeb Corporate author: TEDxCarthage | TEDx Talks Le monde a salué la Révolution tunisienne comme étant celle des technologies de l'information et des communications. Cela est vrai en partie, car les jeunes tunisiens ont déjoué la censure, ont relayé les images de la révolte et des protestations. Mais en même temps, l'usage de l'ordinateur et d'Internet reste aujourd'hui très en deçà des normes internationales. Plus encore, il présente des disparités régionales majeures. Des cyberbases dans l'ensemble des régions tunisiennes peuvent donner à chaque tunisien un passeport vers la modernité et la citoyenneté.
