Education in a globalized world - teaching right livelihood

Más información sobre el libro

How can the principles of the Right Livelihood Award, often referred to as the “Alternative Nobel Prize,” be effectively integrated into educational methods within future-oriented teacher training? This book explores this question through a collection of articles from both academic and practical perspectives. Education researchers, subject specialists, and teacher trainers present innovative formats designed to equip prospective teachers for the diverse challenges posed by globalization and internationalization. In a world marked by linguistic, ethnic, religious, and cultural diversity, teachers must fulfill their educational roles within a globally connected and mobile society. They are tasked with conveying the complexities of globalization to their students while creating effective learning opportunities to navigate future challenges. The proposed formats address the themes of Right Livelihood—focusing on ecology, social justice, and peace—in an age-appropriate and experiential manner, all within an interdisciplinary framework. The aim is to integrate Global Learning into Education for Sustainable Development within teacher education programs and to implement these strategies directly in classrooms.
