  • First Online:
Global Values Education

Part of the book series: Globalisation, Comparative Education and Policy Research ((GCEP,volume 7))

Abstract

This chapter develops a nexus between globalisation, values and human rights, within cultural perspective. It is argued that there is a need to re-conceptualise the nexus between globalisation and values education in Australia. The authors remind us that those universal human rights standards are rooted in many cultures. As such, they make it possible to develop a model of Human Rights for Australia, which links both multiculturalism and reconciliation.
