The findings reveal that both camps sought to establish a sense of community through the development and use of rituals and traditions established primarily over an intensive staff precamp training week that were integrally connected to the natural context in which the camps were located. However, the contemporary camp emphasized community and natural surrounds as a metaphor for life outside of camp, while the traditional camp tended to emphasize the natural context of community as a respite from life outside of camp.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:46 AEDT ]]> Mediating global citizenry: a study of facilitator-educators at an Australian university https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33052 Fri 24 Aug 2018 11:32:20 AEST ]]> A rite of passage? Exploring youth transformation and global citizenry in the study abroad experience https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30368 rite of passage, is often also touted as a transformative experience which facilitates cross-cultural understanding, fosters an embrace of diversity and promotes global awareness. This process is aligned with youth development and has a rich history in the tourism literature. The importance of transformational travel, however, has now spread to programmes across the higher education landscape, with the recognition that travel has the potential to nurture a global citizenry. Additionally, for many young people, the motivation for studying abroad is to assist in the transition to adulthood. In this way, educational travel is similar to an ‘overseas experience’ or a ‘gap year’. It is often taken at an important time of transition in emerging adulthood, for example, from school to work. We argue that this period of identity formation for youth can be likened to a rite of passage much like the Grand Tour of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries was for young European men and women. Our paper examines the role of the study abroad experience in promoting youth transformation and global citizenry.]]> Fri 20 Oct 2017 15:27:54 AEDT ]]> Degrowth in tourism: advocacy for thriving not diminishment https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54565 Fri 01 Mar 2024 15:17:02 AEDT ]]>
