What ?
Education is an important step in
preparing for earning a living in the work place, but only if it
leads to personal knowledge that can guide one to wise
decision-making.
Life education is left to
parents, relatives and their living environment, and often does
not include basic knowledge relating to personal finance,
self-appraisal, or even a moral compass.
The combination of these does not
prepare people for the Global Village, nor does it give them the
necessary knowledge, experience and mindset to enable them to
become successful in a global caring sharing economy.
Understanding other cultures,
thereby gaining valuable insights, can only be attained through
in-depth experiences in such cultures that combine thought
provoking activities that lead to a respect and appreciation of
other Global Villagers.
The
Starlight Educaltural Institute has been set up to undertake much needed research on these
issues which will lead to the development of activities that
promote a
Global
Village Mindset in citizens around the
world... a world in dire need of people with not only leadership
and entrepreneurial skills and education, but also the cultural
integrity and world view to lead mankind into a golden age of
humane behaviour for a truly caring Global
Village Civilization.
As such, the social aspects under
scrutiny will at first include learning as it relates to formal
and informal education to enable individuals to develop
necessary skills and knowledge, as well as culture in all its
varied presentations around the globe.
S.E.I
will
synergize existing knowledge and expand research to present
reports on enhancing the Global Village's qualities and
opportunities for growth along a "humane" path.
S.E.I
members,
supporters and sponsors will review these and other aspects
while considering the synergistic impact of technology,
transportation, media, the internet and other sectors that are
part of our developing Global Village civilization.
S.E.I
is
developing innovative concepts that will help participants to
effectively experience other cultures and lifestyles in existing
cultural specificities around the world that will encourage and
prepare them to actively participate and promote a
Global Village Mindset.
