Session Description
This presentation seeks to inform our understanding of identity literacy as an instrumental component of global citizenship for adult education. Using the Critical Literacies Advancement Model (CLAM) as a framework, various complexities and intersections related to identity literacy are discussed. I propose that, by developing identity literacy, critical thinkers can become more globally aware citizens who are better equipped and informed to more effectively promote equity and social justice.
