Spaceship Earth
The project deals with the awareness of global crisis in European adult training. There are indications to believe that the
awareness of global crisis is based on cultural constructions. The ideas of “world”, “end of the world”, “salvation of the
world” are influenced by old narratives, than the tackling of global crisis could be seen as an intercultural task.
The learners will observe the perception of the global crisis phenomena (for example: change of climate) in their country
and the international efforts to tackle the crisis (for example: through world- conferences, concepts of sustainable
development, millennium – targets). The observed discussions are going to be compared according to a defined concept.
Especially interesting could be the comparison between societies with protestantic, catholic, orthodox or Muslim
background.
The knowledge gained will finally be transferred in a game: The spaceship earth is caught in a problem. The
multicultural crew (portrayed in likeness of the European society) tries to analyse the problem, understand the situation
and to deal with it together.
As a result, a collection of materials, better a text for a play or a musical shall be created.
