Educație și provocările globale. Rolul UNESCO în promovarea educației pentru cetățenie mondială
Education and global challenges. The role of UNESCO in promoting education for global citizenship

Summary/Abstract: Education has an essential role to play in addressing the economic, social, political, ecological problems faced by today’s globalized world. It can contribute to the creation of peaceful, tolerant, inclusive and sustainable societies. In 2014, UNESCO recognized the Education Program for Global Citizenship as a central education objective under the slogan "Learning to Live together in Peace". This Program, developed by UNESCO and other international institutions, aims at training young people to take an active role in addressing global challenges by promoting knowledge and social skills to foster peaceful coexistence, international cooperation, solidarity and respect for diversity. The Education for Global Citizenship Program is inspired from other approaches in the field, while also complementing them. These approaches are focused on the challenges of global education and citizenship (education for peace, human rights, citizenship, education for sustainable development).
