  • Glocal Forum Presentation
    GLOCAL FORUM PRESENTATION UN HABITAT EXPERT GROUP MEETING ON STRATEGIES FOR CREATING URBAN YOUTH EMPLOYMENT : Solution for Urban Youth in Africa I - Glocal Forum experience on youth and governance 1. Glocal Forum The Glocal Forum is a Non-Governmental Organization created in 2001 working for a new balance between global and local forces by emphasizing the central role of cities in the world. Our vision, glocalization, is an innovative strategy focusing on global issues by empowering local communities. It is a reform of globalization that encourages global powers to have a broader respect for local powers and cultural diversity. Led by its president, Ambassador Uri Savir, the Glocal Forum promotes peacebuilding and development activities through city-to-city relationships, youth empowerment and information communication technology. The Glocal Forum believes that cities have a central role in international relations and that mayors are poised to become the new diplomats of our world. City leaders have the advantage of mobilizing the good will, energy and expertise of their civil societies to contribute to peaceful dialogue and cultural exchange. The organization supports city-to-city networks by connecting them to the resources of the private and public sector. The Glocal Forum utilizes this global coalition of international organizations and private sector companies to harness resources and address local needs. A primary goal of city-to-city cooperation is to build an environment in which divisions caused by conflict and hatred can be bridged with harmony and coexistence. The Glocal Forum uses the city- to-city model as a fresh approach to brokering peace in the Middle East.

Terraciano, Chair My project traces the evolution of the Zapotec cultural practice of guelaguetza, an indigenous sharing system of collaboration and exchange in Mexico, from pre-Columbian and colonial times to the present. Ironically, the term "guelaguetza" was appropriated by the Mexican government in the twentieth century to promote an annual dance festival in the city of Oaxaca that has little to do with the actual meaning of the indigenous tradition. My analysis of Zapotec-language alphabetic sources from the Central Valley of Oaxaca, written from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries, reveals that Zapotecs actively participated in the sharing system during this long period of transformation. My project demonstrates that the Zapotec sharing economy functioned to build and reinforce social networks among households in Zapotec communities.
