Section outline

  • Welcome to Global Studies 2020. This term our context is "He waka eke noa" or, "we're all in this together". We will begin our term by embarking on an exploration of the social, geographical, political, economic, and ecological world. During this you will be encouraged to reflect on your responsibilities as Kaitiaki of Coast.

     As the title of the subject implies, we will do this by focussing on social events around the Globe, and how they often connect to local issues in our own communities. In this way, we will be studying how the Global community interacts in both positive and negative ways. We will also ask ourselves the question of how we, as members of local and global communities, can participate in society and have positive impacts on the world with our thinking and actions.
