SUMMARY:Webinar: Global learning as a dimension of education for democracy
DESCRIPTION:22 November 2023\, 16:00-17:30\nDemocracy\, which can be unders
 tood as the central basis of coexistence through the core element of democ
 ratic decision-making\, is under threat. However\, the survival of humanit
 y depends on the establishment of balanced processes of interest negotiati
 on\, i.e.\, democracy on a global scale. Given the tension between threate
 ned democracy and the need for shared decision-making\, effective democrac
 y education is more urgent than ever. However\, democracy-education is oft
 en oriented towards learning about citizen-based national instruments of d
 ecision making. However\, this is an inadequate response\, as democracies 
 are globally envolved and influenced.\nTherefore\, there is a need for mor
 e and better democracy education that looks towards a global horizon\, and
  reflecting global social justice.  Global learning becomes a core elemen
 t of democracy promotion. \nThis webinar will focus on the relationship b
 etween Democracy Education and Global Learning on an empirical basis. The 
 objective is to explore the perspectives for democracy promotion in Global
  Learning.\nFour studies will be presented:\n\n	First\, Jana Costa (German
 y) will explain which conceptions of citizenship underpin the survey of gl
 obal competencies in the 2018 PISA survey\, this policy agenda set on a gl
 obal scale.\n	Secondly\, Louise Ohlig and Erick Msuya (Germany and Tanzani
 a) will look closely on the conditions under which school-partnershios ope
 n up spaces for democracy learning across different learning contexts.\n	E
 lina Kuusisto\, Isolde de Groot\, Ingrid Schutte and Inkeri Rissanen (Finl
 and\, Netherlands) will then investigate the civic purpose of preservice t
 eachers in the Netherlands and Finland\, exploring the question of how tea
 chers can be prepared for democracy teaching and learning in a global hori
 zon.\n	The fourth contribution by Caroline Rau and Emmer Demorel (Germany)
  investigates Turkish migrants’ understanding of democracy from a world 
 society perspective. This study shows that learning to participate should 
 be thought of transnationally - which once again calls into question their
  nation-state constitution for political education and democracy learning.
 \n\nThis webinar relates to learning for a just\, peaceful and sustainable
  world and focuses on the contribution of Global Learning to democracy edu
 cation. Insights will be gained through empirical research\, both for diff
 erent groups (pre-service teachers\, migrants\, students) and in national\
 , international and transnational constellations as in the in-depth analys
 is of the global discourse agenda.\n\n	Chair: Susanne Timm\n	Discussant: A
 nnette Scheunpflug\n\nThis event will last around 90 minutes and will be h
 osted via Zoom. Please register via Zoom using the button below. After the
  presentations\, there will be opportunities to ask the presenters questio
