Global Citizenship & Equity Reflective Practice:

Reflect on the GCE Learning Outcome and answer two out of the three questions by thinking about different perspectives, or within your own experiences, values, culture, and within a larger context of International Business. Be open and honest in your answers and integrate course terms and additional supportive research. 1. Identify beliefs, values and behaviours that form individual and community identities and the basis for respectful relationships. Do you believe that it is the consumers responsibility or the industry’s responsibility to ensure that components of technology be mined ethically? 2. Analyze the use of the world’s resources to ach ieve sustainability and equitable distribution at the personal, professional, and global level. People, and thus labour are also resources. In your opinion, are we using the world’s resources (people mining) equitably when we buy a technology containing coltan? 3. Support personal and social responsibility initiatives at the local, national or global level. Find out some of the ways the industry is approaching ethical mining. Show your research and findings.
