“…Solidarity is also crucial for maintaining the right to a healthy environment (Benatar, 2011). In the case of vaccinations, the ethos of solidarity is fundamental since so-called herd immunity is only achieved when a sufficient proportion of a population is vaccinated (Khoo, 2015). However, solidarity declines with Bauman's so-called liquid modernity (Bauman, 2013), a perspective which emphasizes the individual's freedom of choice and right to autonomy.…”

“…The quest for GCE and ESD to be informed by nuanced solidarity and justice (Bryan 2011;Khoo 2015b;Sweeney 2015) rather than by Western-centric over-generalisation, paternalism or charity can be supported by boundary and border thinking. Raworth's 'doughnut' marks out bounded horizons for thinking about GCE-ESD intersections.…”

This article examines intersecting agendas and concerns in global citizenship education (GCE) and education for sustainable development (ESD) in the face of current global crises and pressures. While it cannot be assumed that the two educational projects automatically converge, generative and promising overlaps emerge from the shared interest in the SDG 4.7 education target. The article elaborates on a conversation emerging from the Bridge47 Knowledge Exchange Partnership focused on critical global citizenship education, and discusses the tensions, ambiguities, limitations and implications for critical, transgressive and potentially transformative GCE + ESD. While GCE and ESD can be ambivalent and constrained in formal educational settings, especially in comparison to informal projects where there are direct partnerships with people living on the margins of society, we argue that the potential generativity and transgressive possibilities of engaged and collaborative research have been under-emphasised. Participatory and praxis methodologies where education and research overlap offer significant transgressive and transformative potential. We point to important collaborative potentials in research practice that can help to bridge GCE-ESD gaps, given their substantial theoretical and practical experience in situated contexts, engagement with transgressive politics and creative and inclusive ethics of practice.

“…According to Reichlin (2011:365, 370), Article 13 forms the foundation and motivation for social responsibility in health care. It means the content of Article 14 regards challenges to people to show solidarity as a priority (Khoo 2015 Benefits according to Article 15.1 (a-g) include health-related matters such as assistance to and recognition of persons that have participated in research, access to quality health care, provision of diagnostic and therapeutic aids, support of health services, access to scientific and technological knowledge and support of capacity-building facilities directed at research. Also, Garrafa (2014:184) is convinced that Article 15 has to be regarded as a normative reference.…”

Solidarity as a global bioethical principle: Own reasons for a culture of solidarity from a Protestant perspective

In the development and acceptance of Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Bioethics and Human Rights (UDBHR), the Protestant faith tradition was not involved in the consultation process (other traditions were indeed consulted). This brings the universality (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization [UNESCO] perspective) as well as the acceptability of the declaration and its principles (civic perspective) into question. To address this issue, it is necessary to involve the Protestant tradition in the discourse by presenting own reasons to support the universal principles in the declaration (theological perspective). In order to achieve the aim, two facets of Article 13 will be studied. In the first place, to present satisfactory own reasons, it is important to investigate and construe beforehand what UNESCO’s understanding is of the content of Article 13 of the declaration. In the second place, with sufficient understanding of Article 13, a theological evaluation and grounding will be undertaken. From a broad Protestant perspective, this discourse has shown that solidarity as a shared value can be grounded in a Trinitarian approach. It is clear that Article 13 of the UDBHR can be grounded in a broad Protestant social teaching; therefore, the call for solidarity can be encouraged, wholeheartedly supported and executed.Intradisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary implications: This study gives attention to global bioethics and human rights, an underdeveloped subject within the field of theological ethics. The study overlaps with political science, philosophy (global ethics) and human rights. It joins the discussion in this discipline and supports the promotion of solidarity within this field, which is very important within the health sector in South Africa.
