Global themes

It is a growing trend in science education to consider science as a part of our globalised world.

Global themes include environment, ethics, communication and economics as well as local and global dimensions.

The projects we have chosen view the world:

1. in an inter-connected non-compartmentalised way;
2. bridge subject boudaries;
3. look beyond the immediate personal context.
