In Our Brother's Keeper, Mark Hyman, Ed.D., examines over twenty-five years of "experiments" in nurturing global citizenship and collective responsibility in adolescent youth. This mission-driven work is a call to action for educators to co-create concrete pathways of connection with cultures beyond our daily lives.

Through a candid survey of successes and failures, you will explore:

• Transnational Connections: Learn to found global citizenship communities that bridge the gap between local classrooms and the world.
• Theory into Practice: Discover how to integrate the "face-to-face" ethics of Emmanuel Levinas into middle school and high school pedagogy.
• Action-Learning in Motion: Study real-world initiatives ranging from landmine removal in Bosnia to school construction in Ethiopia.

"Our essential ethical challenge as educators is to broaden and deepen the capacity of our students to imbue their lives with a profound curiosity of mind and a spirit of empathy."

• For the educator, this text is a practical guide and inspiration for your journey as a global citizenship teacher-facilitator.
• For the "citizen of the world," it is a powerful testament to the impact of active solidarity in our modern age.
