Global Dialogues (2024-2025)
As a complement to the face-to-face teaching of the NGCE learning modules, the Global Dialogues series was organized once again following last year’s success, allowing local students to interact with peers from around the world.
The Global Dialogues series featured six virtual online discussions led by experts and academics in various fields of expertise. Spanning different topics from women’s education to racial equality, students and staff from over 8 countries engaged in discussion and shared their perspectives and ideas. Both students and staff enjoyed the activities, and they were enriching and eye-opening for everyone involved.

Global Dialogues I - Fast Fashion & Sustainable Consumption

F ast fashion meets the latest trends, but often at the expense of environmental sustainability and ethical labor practices. Sustainable consumption, on the other hand, advocates for mindful purchasing habits, prioritizing quality over quantity, and supporting ethical brands that ensure fair labor practices and eco-friendly production methods.

Global Dialogues II - Climate Change and Creative Art


Climate change is one of the most pressing global challenges of our time, impacting ecosystems, weather patterns, and human livelihoods. Creative art plays a pivotal role in raising awareness and inspiring action on this critical issue. By bridging science and emotion, creative art fosters a greater understanding of environmental issues, motivates public engagement, and encourages communities to adopt sustainable practices.
Global Dialogues III - Climate Change and Green Economy

In our third Global Dialogues, we understand that addressing the challenge of climate change requires a fundamental shift towards a green economy, which emphasizes sustainable development while minimizing environmental impact. By fostering innovation and investing in green technologies, a green economy not only mitigates the effects of climate change but also creates new economic opportunities, jobs, and a more resilient and equitable future for all.

Global Dialogues IV - Women's Education and Community Empowerment


W omen’s education and empowerment are crucial for fostering equitable societies and driving sustainable development. Access to quality education can break the cycle of poverty, improve health outcomes, and promote gender equality. By investing in women’s education and empowerment, societies can unlock the full potential of half their population, leading to more inclusive growth, innovation, and progress towards global development goals.
Global Dialogues V - Intercultural Communication

I ntercultural communication encompasses understanding and navigating diverse cultural norms, values, and communication styles to foster effective and meaningful interactions. In an increasingly globalized world, intercultural communication enhances mutual respect and empathy, enabling individuals and organizations to operate more effectively in multicultural environments and creates more harmonious and inclusive societies.

Global Dialogues VI - Racial Equality


R acial equality aims to eliminate discrimination, prejudice, and systemic barriers that perpetuate racial disparities in areas such as education, employment, healthcare, and justice. Achieving racial equality requires proactive efforts to address historical injustices, promote diversity and inclusion, and foster environments where all people can thrive.
