Global Village Reflections

What have you learned about the world’s diversity related to cultures, environments, practices, values and levels of human development? This should involve some cross-cultural comparisons.

In the context of all the Global Villagers you have met, what have you discovered in terms of global systems/institutions and relationships of power in a historical or geographical context?

What are some of the impacts, globally, of individual and collective decisions in one part of the world on other parts of the world? How is your global villager impacted by decisions made by others, sometimes others that are very separate from their day to day reality?
