ABSTRACT

If the optimal path for sustainability is through multilingual andintercultural Indigenous-global education, how does the global modern dimension of such education differ from more assimilative forms of modern secular education? After all, the modern variant of education perpetuates a view of, the world as an anthropomorphized collection of nation-states vying for competitive advantage. So, the first step to realizing a sustainability agenda for education is to shift out of the shadow of national economic citizenship education and to develop an international or global ecological citizenship education agenda to guide the means and ends of education.
