Value-Creating Global Citizenship Education for Sustainable Development: Strategies and Approaches: Palgrave Studies in Global Citizenship Education and Democracy

Autor Namrata Sharma
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 oct 2020
This volume brings together marginalized perspectives and communities into the mainstream discourse on education for sustainable development and global citizenship. Building on her earlier work, Sharma uses non-western perspectives to  challenge dominant agendas and the underlying Western worldview in the UNESCO led discourse on global citizenship education. Chapters develop the theoretical framework around the three domains of learning within the global citizenship education conceptual dimensions of UNESCO--the cognitive, socio-emotional, and behavioral--and offer practical insights for educators. Value-creating global citizenship education is offered as a pedagogical approach to education for sustainable development and global citizenship in addition to and complementing other approaches mentioned within the recent UNESCO guidelines.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This book discusses value-creating global citizenship education as a pedagogical approach developed by taking Soka studies as a focal point of inquiry. It uses a values-based lens to examine education for sustainable development and global citizenship. The author proposes curriculum, teaching, learning, and policy to address issues including climate change, human rights, and peace, while also engaging with the educational crises posed by current and potential future pandemics. Overall, these strategies move beyond education for individual empowerment in order to foster citizens capable of taking collective actions for local-global issues. The proposals emphasize the need to build relationships between learners and their natural-social-educational environment through formal, non-formal, and informal learning.
