Networking and Sharing - Global Citizenship Education and Responsibility

Libby Giles, septiembre 2017

July/August was an active time for participation and networking at three events :

• ECOCITY Melbourne, in Australia, 12-14 July 2017,

• UNESCO World Humanities Conference, Liège, Belgium, 6-12 August 2017,

• Sharing Civic Experience: NGOs and Global Citizenship Education, in Hsinchu, in Taiwan, 22-25 August 2017.

At all three events I had the privilege of presenting on global citizenship education from a teacher/practitioner’s perspective with responsibility as the key underpinning principle. My work has a focus on embedding philosophy as the stand alone subject that informs all areas of a curriculum and specialises in the skills and attributes required for developing responsible and creative global citizens.
