How can we better empower young people to cooperate and to find their niche in an ever-globalizing social order?

How can students develop a better understanding of what connects — and divides — nations, societies and cultures in today's rapidly changing world.

How can we connect the debate on global issues to students' everyday lives?

The Solution?

Global Connections — a cutting-edge online tool developed by The Globalist — helps teachers and students explore the biggest story of our lifetime: globalization.

Each week, Global Connections provides a suite of six e-briefings: Fast Facts, Country of the Week, Issue of the Week, Quiz of the Week, and Person of Week.
