Another Example of Delta Kappa Gamma Leaders at Work
Education is a powerful tool for change; we cannot deny that the lives of our children are increasingly shaped by events in other parts of the world. Teaching about this interdependence should be a focus of curriculum at all levels. The Committee for Teaching About the United Nations (CTAUN) recognizes this interdependence.
Teaching and Learning in an Interdependent World, the theme of the CTAUN Conference held at the United Nations headquarters in New York City Feb. 1, presented several aspects of interdependence. This was the 10th in a series of annual conferences for educators organized by CTAUN in cooperation with the United Nations Department of Public Information (UN/DPI) .
Anne-Marie Carlson, Dr. Rita King, Dr. Jacqueline Abbott, Phyllis Hickey, Margaret Nielsen, Dr. Margaret Anzul, Narin Stassis and Grace Murphy are Delta Kappa Gamma members who were directly involved with the conference with Anne-Marie serving as chair of the event. Nearly 500 educators from surrounding states (and as far away as California) attended the conference. Delta Kappa Gamma members represented more than 80 of the participants attending this education opportunity. Dr. Barbara Day, international president, and Corlea Plowman, executive coordinator, were among those attending.
