Ecopedagogy and citizenship in the age of globalisation: connections between environmental and global citizenship education to save the planet Year of publication: 2015 Author: Greg William Misiaszek Corporate author: Wiley‑Blackwell Teaching the connections between environmentally-harmful acts and social conflict is essential but is often ignored in education. This article presents two ways in which these are not taught because of the policies of those who benefit from the ignorance of these connections: first, the avoidance of teaching global-local connectivity and second, the devaluing of non-dominant cultures. Ecopedagogy is a democratic, transformative pedagogy centred on increasing justice by critically teaching the politics of environmental issues. I argue that global citizenship education (GCE) must be an element of ecopedagogy to contextually learn globalisation's effects upon local communities. In addition, GCE's goal is to increase students' understanding of diverse cultures to respect them. Ecopedagogy is also essential to GCE to fully teach social conflicts resulting from environmentally harmful acts. I offer policy and pedagogical changes to disrupt reproductive environmental pedagogies that help to sustain environmental ills for ecopedagogy-GCE models to emerge.
Ecopedagogy et Citoyenneté à l'ère de la Mondialisation: des liens entre l'environnement et l'éducation à la citoyenneté Mondiale (ECM) pour sauver la planète Year of publication: 2015 Author: Greg William Misiaszek Corporate author: Wiley‑Blackwell Enseigner les liens entre les actes nuisibles à l'environnement et les conflits sociaux est essentielle, mais est souvent ignorée dans l'éducation. Cet article présente deux façons dont ceux-ci ne sont pas enseignées à cause des politiques de ceux qui profitent de l'ignorance de ces connexions: d'abord, l'évitement de l'enseignement connectivité mondiale-locale et, deuxièmement, la dévalorisation des cultures non dominantes. Ecopedagogy est une société démocratique, la pédagogie transformative centrée sur l'augmentation de la justice par l'enseignement critique la politique des questions environnementales. Je soutiens que L'éducation à la citoyenneté Mondiale (ECM) doit être un élément de ecopedagogy apprendre contextuellement les effets de la mondialisation sur les communautés locales. En outre, l'objectif de l'ECM est d'accroître la compréhension des élèves de diverses cultures à les respecter. Ecopedagogy est également essentiel d'ECM pour enseigner pleinement les conflits sociaux résultant d'actes préjudiciables à l'environnement. Je propose des changements politiques et pédagogiques pour perturber les pédagogies environnementaux de reproduction qui aident à maintenir les maux environnementaux pour les modèles ecopedagogy-ECM à émerger.

Education à la citoyenneté mondiale: thèmes et objectifs d'apprentissage Year of publication: 2015 Corporate author: UNESCO This publication, titled Global Citizenship Education: Topics and learning objectives, is the first pedagogical guidance from UNESCO on global citizenship education. It is the result of an extensive research and consultation process with experts from different parts of the world. This guidance draws on the UNESCO publication Global Citizenship Education: Preparing learners for the challenges of the 21st century and the outcomes of three key UNESCO events on global citizenship education: the Technical Consultation on Global Citizenship Education (September 2013), as well as the First and Second UNESCO Fora on Global Citizenship Education, organized in December 2013 and January 2015 respectively. Before it was finalized, the guidance was field-tested by education stakeholders in selected countries in all regions to ensure its relevance in different geographical and socio-cultural contexts. Following the foundational work of UNESCO to clarify the conceptual underpinnings of global citizenship education and provide policy and programmatic directions, this document has been developed in response to the needs of Member States for overall guidance on integrating global citizenship education in their education systems. It presents suggestions for translating global citizenship education concepts into practical and age-specific topics and learning objectives in a way that allows for adaptation to local contexts. It is intended as a resource for educators, curriculum developers, trainers as well as policy-makers, but it will also be useful for other education stakeholders working in non-formal and informal settings.
