R22 ( 723) Teach children and youths the Glass-bubble concept of a Global Community. Here is a sample-mini lesson plan to assist Elementary School Teachers to demonstrate the concept of Global Community to children. To experience the concept of "global community" walk outdoors in a location with as many natural elements as possible - city, park, river, mountains - be prepared to really look, to really see whatever surrounds you. Look up, look down, to the right, to the left, in front and behind you. Imagine all this space is inside a giant clear glass bubble. This is "a global community." Wherever you go, you are inside a "global" community. Every thing, every living creature there, interacts one upon the other. Influences inter-weave and are responsible for causes and effects. Worlds within worlds orbiting in and out of one another's space, having their being. Your presence has influence on everything else inside your immediate global community. Learn to be aware of that and act accordingly, to create good or destroy, to help or to hurt. Your choice. To do good is being a responsible global citizen. Now let us explore this Global Community that we have visited and discover why each member is important ~ each bird, each tree, each little animal, each insect, plant and human being ~ and how all work together to create a good place to live. You walk like a giant in this Global Community. To all the tiny members you are so big, so powerful, even scary? You can make or break their world. But by knowing their needs, and taking care, you can help your whole Global Community be a good one. You become a good global citizen. * Why is it important to you? * What do you like about it? * What bothers you about it? * Anything need to be done? * What is really good there? * What is very very important? * What is not so important? * What is not good? * What is needed to keep the good things? * What could make them even better? * What do they do to keep the good things good? * Could they help get rid of bad things? * What unimportant things need to go? * How could they help get rid of these things? Let each child be aware he either grows up to be a person who helps or a person who destorys. Each child makes his own choice. He creates his own future in this way. This may or may not inspire some sort of creative project, of what "could be" to aid this Global Community to remain healthy. To interact knowledgeably within one's global community has to be taught ~ especially to urban children. It has to be brought to them very clearly all life forms interact and depend upon other life forms for survival. They need to know "reasons why" ignorance of nature's law causes such damage, and why working in harmony with nature produces such good results. The concept of the Glass Bubble can be extended to include the planet Earth and all the "global communities" contained therein. That is "the Global Community". |

This procedure has been effective and improved upon since 1985. Verify its use in 2008.  Global Dialogue 2013 is being held all over the planet. Our website is used to relate results to everyone so as to continue the discussions with everyone else on Earth. Participants may apply to lead a Group Discussion by email. 
Here is how it works. All Global Dialogue 2013 issues were listed in the issues section. Each Global Dialogue 2013 issue is connected to a Group Discussion by email. Each Group Discussion by email may have one or more Global Dialogue 2013 issues and has an index such as this:
To connect with each Group Discussion by email click on a Group Discussion by email in the Listing of Group Discussion by email 2013.
Participants send their articles, research papers, comments, videos and other works of art, recommendations, and results from a forum or a brain-storming exercises.
The work of each participant is entered in his/her individual FILE and
summarized in the Group Discussion by email section "Work from participants and authors with a summary or abstract of each work".
Leaders of the Group Discussion by email are allowed to organize their sessions in their own town, global community, university or home, wherever, as long as they assume all costs and responsibilities.
Noone is being paid for their work and expenses. This is strictly on a volunteering basis and no money is available or will be available.
You may also invite the public, experts and all Participants to your Group Discussion by email. This is a grassroots process and everyone is invited. Leaders send the above results to this office to be entered on the website for viewing by everyone. Daily results of the Group Discussion by email are to be sent by email to globalcommunity@telus.net in the message area of the email (please no attachment unless necessary). Each email message should not be larger than 60 KB. Send several messages but try to be within this limit. Only messages with email addresses shown under the Participants List will be read. Leaders do not have to do this. They may even up-out of this process at any time without penalties of any kind (let me know now if you cannot go on with this process). So please be understanding! We are breaking grounds with the Global Dialogue and in the ways international conferences may be held in the future. Noone has ever organized a Global Dialogue having people (including the general public) from all over the planet participating interactively from their own town, community, universities or homes. All Participants are invited to send their work with comments and recommendations to the Leaders of their choice and also directly to the Office of Global Dialogue 2013. Participants are required to communicate with
their leaders of interest. You are required to discuss via email and send comments and recommendations to them. Leaders will relate
to this website your comments and recommendations and summarizing results.All Leaders are required to send an Opening Statement related to their Group Discussion by email. A Closing Statement should also be sent during the period August 17-22, 2013. These statements along with the comments and recommendations will be inserted in the space reserved to each Global Group Discussion Session on our website. The list of participants who have sent research papers is shown on our website. If you are planning to send a research paper do read the section ' Expectations from those sending research papers ', and the section
' Call for Papers '.
When you submit a paper you must fill and send us the Paper Submission Cover Sheet.
Research papers and other information will also be copied on our website in the Participant Listing section.
All Leaders will contact (by email) paper submitters who have written Lead Papers within their respective Group Discussion by email and ask for comments and recommendations. All papers must be reviewed. During the period August 17-22 leaders will summarize results and email them as well.
