GLOBAL IS PART OF OUR LIVES

• socially through media (tv, video, audio, press, social media)

• culturally through people moving (students, immigrants, refugees…)

• economically through world trade and agreements

• environmentally through living on the same planet(climate change, pollution…)

• politically through international relations, organizations…

Schools need to prepare students for a

world in which people need to work with

others of diverse cultural origins, and

appreciate different ideas, perspectives

and values.
