The Disinformation Link: A Discussion of How Global Citizenship Education Contributes to Global Political Stability
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The threat of Social Polarization and disinformation is growing in these post-pandemic times, threatening the political stability and social cohesion of the world, and education has become an option to address this crisis. This paper examines Global Citizenship Education (GCE)’s ability to counteract disinformation and Social Polarization (SP) using media and literacy training (MIL), as previous studies on these topics rarely address their direct relationships. The finding suggests that there is a strong probability that MIL, under the guidance of the GCE framework, has the capability to mitigate disinformation and, in turn, SP. However, due to limited evidence in the area, this paper is unable to confirm the relationship between SP and Global Political Stability. Despite this, this paper still offers a unique perspective on GCE, which helps set the stage for future studies to explore related topics. The insights derived from this paper are valuable for various actors and researchers, which could help contribute to a more stable, peaceful global society.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
