One prominent trend in international education is the growth of commercial, profit-driven international schools all around the world, delivering an international curriculum to local students.

In this contribution, we seek to problematise not just mathematics and (global) citizenship but also the process of researching with a critical intent. We argue for a disorderly approach and use researching our participation in a European funded project -- the Project in Citizenship and Mathematics ("PiCaM") -- as an illustration of the…

This article provides a descriptive account of the workings of an Indigenous-led teacher training initiative in the Peruvian Amazon (Formabiap) and considers the extent of its transdisciplinary pedagogic approach, with a special focus on the ontological and epistemological stakes of intercultural knowledge exchanges in the context of contemporary…

This paper contributes to the theoretical debate over a global upsurge in higher education (HE) regionalisms which pursue different region-building processes and create policy spaces beyond national boundaries. Focusing on the Nordic countries, the paper studies parallel processes of intra-Nordic and European HE and research cooperation. Although…

Global citizenship education (GCE) seeks to develop critical thinking and self-reflexivity and, crucially, to create feelings of belonging to a common humanity. Although the subjectivity of belonging has been widely recognized, gaps remain around the micro-level experiences and practices that foster global identities. This article addresses these…

This paper explores the role of local knowledges and wisdoms in educational research and theorizing, drawing examples from Oceania and Asia.

A key goal of global education in language teaching is to "have students 'think globally and act locally'"(Cates, 2013, p. 278) -- an idea in line with the concept of glocality. Virtual exchange -- i.e. connecting learners with different lingua-cultural backgrounds over extended periods of time via digital communication technologies (The…

As global language policy, English language teaching (ELT) development aid is as old as the field of language policy and planning. Contemporary discourses of ELT aid management acknowledge voices of project beneficiaries such as teachers. Beneficiary testimonials may satisfy the neoliberal demand for accountability, efficiency and evidence of…
