What does it mean to be a citizen of the world? Educating for global competence
OECD Education Podcast - A podcast by OECD Education & Skills
Categories:
In a society that is becoming more and more interdependent, the next generation will have to use a brand new set of skills and a new level of understanding in order to work well with their peers from every nation - a set of skills known as "global competence". Andreas Schleicher, Director of the OECD's Directorate for Education and Skills, Anthony Jackson, Director of the Asia Society’s Center for Global Education, and Mario Piacentini, an Analyst at the OECD's Education and Skills Directorate, discuss what these skills entail, their importance, and how we can integrate them into existing education systems worldwide.
