Mr Global Citizen's Quest

​Today, Mr Global Citizen would like you to think about the 'Global Economy'.

He would like to begin with a quote from Martin Luther King as a starting point:-

Question:
​In what ways are Martin Luther's words true for you? Discuss.
Globalisation and Interdependence
What does this mean?
It is when one country depends on another country for something and that country may depend on another country, which eventually creates global interdependence. Importing and exporting of goods and services highly contributes to global interdependence.
​

We live in an interconnected world in which decisions taken in one place can affect people living on the other side of the planet. However, the idea of global interdependence goes further, recognising that even the wealthiest countries rely heavily on other countries’ riches – from physical commodities such as foodstuffs and minerals to knowledge and culture. 
Have you ever wondered where your food comes from - locally or overseas?

Mr Global Citizen's Quest
​
Have a discussion with your families to identify where certain foods come from e.g exotic fruits, tea, cocoa beans? Where did they grow and how did they end up on our tables to eat and drink? 
Click on the link to see where all the foods imported from other countries come from www.glotechrepairs.co.uk/news/the-uks-top-food-imports-and-where-they-come-from/

Importing and exporting different foods globally equals 'money' and lots of it! This is referred to as the 'Economy'; how much money countries make from importing and exporting foods.
