It focuses on the importance of ensuring balanced development for children and on maintaining their cultural and social identity in the shadow of globalization and technological development.Because of the big role played by media of the globalization culture, such as the information technology and communication, in informing the child’s culture in all its aspects, sensory, mobility, skills and values, the article underlines the necessity to analyze the contents of the mobile culture that is being transmitted via TV, video, electronic games or the Internet in order to show their references and analyze their operating mechanisms.

Education à la citoyenneté et aux droits de l'homme: manuel pour les jeunes en Mauritanie Year of publication: 2015 Author: Sidi Mohamed Ould Mohamed Abdellahi | Bamariam Koita | Mohamed El Moctar Ould Sidina | Abdel Wedoud Corporate author: UNESCO Office Rabat | Mauritania. Ministère de la culture et de l'artisanat | Mauritanian National Commission for Education, Science and Culture Prepared by UNESCO in cooperation with the Mauritanian Ministry of Culture and Crafts, and with the support of the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID), this manual aims to - with the active help of trainers and facilitators - sensitize young Mauritanians to the fundamental concepts of citizenship and human rights. This educational tool, which includes practical exercises adapted to a young audience, consists of 20 didactic cards that describe and explain Mauritania national legislation on human rights.Ce Manuel, composé de 20 fiches thématiques, offre de manière inédite des connaissances sur les conventions et standards internationaux en matière de démocratie et de droits de l’homme, ainsi qu’une contextualisation aux cadres normatifs nationaux de la Mauritanie. Des questions clés, des exercices interactifs, et des références pour aller plus loin sont autant d’outils pédagogiques pour familiariser les jeunes avec des notions fondamentales, dans le cadre de l’éducation aussi formelle que non formelle. Car Si l’éducation à la citoyenneté est rattachée à un territoire national dans la mesure où est citoyenne toute personne disposant de droits et de devoirs attachés à une nationalité, à un État, à une histoire sociale et culturelle, l’éducation aux droits de l’homme se réfère quant à elle à un cadre normatif universel et déterritorialisé : sa mission est de cultiver le sentiment d’appartenance de chacun(e) à l’humanité, caractérisée par une dignité propre. Dans une démarche éducative, ce Manuel conjugue les deux dimensions, les interpé- nètre et les met en perspective. L’objectif est de permettre aux jeunes, avec l’aide de formateurs et d’animateurs, d’approfondir et de mettre en perspective leurs connaissances relatives aux valeurs de citoyenneté et aux principes de droits de l’homme, à travers un va-et vient constant entre l’idéal universel et le contexte politique, social, culturel et environnemental dans lequel ils se trouvent.Fruit de la collaboration entre l’UNESCO et le Ministère de la Culture et de l’Artisanat de Mauritanie, et bénéficiant du soutien de l’Agence espagnole pour la coopération internationale pour le développement (AECID), ce Manuel propose des pistes pour explorer et interroger les conditions d’exercice de la citoyenneté, ainsi que des problématiques sociétales émergeantes. Mieux comprendre, pour mieux agir, c’est aussi cela être un agent de changement, de paix et de développement.
