Global Competence

Recently, I stumbled upon the webpage of an organization called, "Asia Society."  Here is the mission of the organization: "Asia Society is the leading educational organization dedicated to promoting mutual understanding and strengthening partnerships among peoples, leaders and institutions of Asia and the United States in a global context. Across the fields of arts, business, culture, education, and policy, the Society provides insight, generates ideas, and promotes collaboration to address present challenges and create a shared future.  Founded in 1956, Asia Society is a nonpartisan, nonprofit educational institution with offices in Hong Kong, Houston, Los Angeles, Manila, Melbourne, Mumbai, New York, San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and Washington, DC."  The article I read titled, "Global Competence: Prepare Youth to Engage with the World," was a great read.  It also comes with pdf copy of the book on the topic and discussion questions.  All of this is free by the way!  Check it out.

Take care,
