Creativity and Communities in a globalized world
What makes a small local community of art educators creative? How does this local community link to other similar communities in a national and in an international level? What elements of creativity or identity are lost in this process?
How does local development and innovations feed a world community and how can international feedback reach local creative communities?
The development of a strong community of primary & secondary school teachers in Greece who work, develop, learn despite state or other support will be used as an example to discuss issues such as communities in a globalized world, independence, structures, sustainability of local or international creative networks.

「全球化世界中的創意及社區」
筆者提出若干問題：小社區如何與其他社區、全國以至國際層面連結，相互影響？全球化過程會讓創意和身份中的那些元素流失？筆者將以希臘中小學教師的團結網絡經驗討論全球化下小社區藝術教育工作者的獨立性及本地及全球創意網絡的可持續性等議題。
