Lesson 9 out now This course is specially designed for those wanting to learn more about important issues such as poverty, power, democracy and human rights. It also takes up workplace rights, which we believe play a vital role in providing people with a better life. The course covers a variety of subjects but we only write briefly about each one. The aim is to provide you with an introduction that will form a foundation for further studies and enable you to seek the knowledge you require. Previous knowledge is not required. We start from scratch. You can also go to our debate forum and discuss the issues taken up in the study circle. Each chapter is followed by a small knowledge test. If you pass the tests we send you a certificate in Globalisation. Begin by logging on. Welcome Alexander Parotidis, Administrator at Global Respect. How do I read the study circle?
