“The author proposes that more emphasis be placed on humanities subjects in conjunction with technology related disciplines to engender more critical and creative thinking. She argues that this humanistic focus in higher education will equip learners with global social skills for the future as well as the foresight to help resolve the inequities of unchecked globalization that threaten sustainability.”

“The author argues that teaching philosophy from an early age will help develop values of empathy and open discourse, which in turn would help shape global citizens who are mindful and respectful of the diversity of opinions, ideas and ways of being in the world.”
