Sea Change and Rebirth

Where are we heading to?

Towards a new Culture?

Migration and Demographic Challenges in Europe

The challenge to the old religious and political order

The Democratisation Process

Globalisation and the World Economy

From Multiculturalism to Interculturalism to…..

The Virtual World

We have become the agents of change and also the objects of change. Change presents new challenges and opportunities.

How do we meet these new challenges and opportunities?

What do we need to learn to successfully meet the challenges and what tools do we need to avail of the opportunities?

This dynamic of change is creating a new

social construct which is both

complementing and changing existing

social relationships. Young people through

the virtual world network are creating a new

kind of community in a global village.

We need to find ways

to respond better to the challenges

adapt more quickly to avail of the

opportunities

and find new ways of learning and new

ways of doing things

A collapse of Time and Space

The new way of Learning needs

to turn into a new form in which stability

needs to emerge from variability.

Learning

has become more of a flat playing field

Our role is to support and facilitate an attitude to learning

Tools to learn what we should learn

Tools to evaluate our learning

Tools to self reflect and introspect our

development

New humanism for the 21st Century

A new way of realising human potential were the old

distinctions of race, religion, culture and geography give

way to a common understanding of a shared humanity.

I hope this was OK - THANKS
