The spread of globalization makes the people around the globe realize that every
nation-state has its own share of injustices as well as unhappiness. But these
citizens are striving to create and achieve a just world, where no man is left
behind, where every nation can taste a world of peace and prosperity, enjoying a
more livable global environment.
These topics will help you as Mindanawan students internalize your role being
part of the global society, which you eventually carry with you wherever you may
be in the local or global arena. While colonization had already affected our norms
and ways of life that changed our political setup down to our social tapestry and
our entire mentality, like other developing colonized countries we strive to rise up
and make a mark on the globe and become an active member of the global
society.
What is sustainability?
In 2015, leaders from the United Nations came up with an ambitious plan
to liberate the world from famine, poverty, conflict and devastating effects of
climate change. They adopted the following 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development with its 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).

Food Security
“When all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe, nutritious food
to maintain a healthy and active life,” then there exists food security, declared by
The World Food Summit of 1996. Every household in every nation across the
globe needs food not only for the time being but every day, through the next
years. In order to maintain food security, there is a need to integrate a degree of
resiliency from the debilitating effects of climate change, economic instability, or
insurgencies, among others. Food security entails food stability, which indicates
unwavering supply of food throughout time. It also means food access that
suggests “affordability and allocation of food, as well as the preferences of
individuals and households. Another aspect of food security is food availability
that talks about food supply via “production, distribution, and exchange”.
Learning Outcomes
Introduction
The modern students, including the previous ones, must be aware and should
have been cognizant to recognize their membership in human society, not only in
the local context but also in the global spectrum. In this lesson, we dispense the
subjective domain of globalization. Here, students are taught that as humans we
share in the benefits of “global standards” and market imports as well as the
pains of global inequality by introducing the concepts of global civil society and
global citizenship (Carter, 2013 and Davies, 2006).
Poverty has been, strikingly, among the social issues around the globe. Locally,
Mindanao houses the poorest provinces. However, despite this social condition
among Mindanawans, efforts have been made to address this situation. For
example, the State Universities and Colleges in Mindanao have forged
agreement for citizen engagement with the World Bank in their participation in the
so-called network of Knowledge for Development Community (KDCs). Another
way of promoting inclusive and sustainable growth is the advancement of
eco-adventure and cultural tourism dubbed as “green and gold tourism”.
