It takes a global village : re-conceptualising global education within current frameworks of school and curricula

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference Paper › Chapter

Abstract

Globally 775 million adults (15 and over) are illiterate, with women being overrepresented. Over 100 million children across secondary and primary years worldwide are excluded from participation in school education (57 million primary age and 69 secondary age children) (UNESCO, 2014a). Global Education is the key to unlocking social stratification, inequality and social injustice, access to quality education that enables young people to become skilled, aware and flexible citizens to deal with current and future issues of globalisation, increased competition for resources, sustainability and conflict (Wang, Lin, Spalding, Odell, & Klecka, 2011). However, many countries including developed nations like Australia are still debating who should hold the keys and what curriculum frameworks will be enacted.
