“It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity.”

Kofi Annan, 7th Secretary-General of the United Nations & co-recipient of the 2001 Nobel Peace Prize.

What impact has globalisation had on Australia's modern cultural identity, social cohesion and diversity?

Orders are now closed for Herald Education's two-part Living in the Asia Pacific educational supplement created exclusively for schools.

Australia’s past, present and future role in the Asia Pacific community will be explored, a timely topic with the 2010 Federal Election underway. This educational supplement, out August 16 & 23, will help students better understand and value the diversity of cultures within Australian society, and the strategic and economic importance of the countries in the Asia Pacific.

Schools who have ordered the supplement will receive Part One on Monday, August 16.

Each part is 12 pages long, and comes in class sets of 15 copies, with copies of the Saturday Sydney Morning Herald and Sun-Herald included to complement the supplement.
Activities to support the supplement are available online each week.
