Global Nomads in Transition

Why are we here? Driven by the International Baccalaureate philosophy, LIS builds the skills and attitudes of each member of our community, shaping adaptable and knowledgeable individuals who meet challenges with confidence.

Why are we here? Explore the meaning of global nomad and third culture kid (TCK) Share our ideas about culture. There are both challenges and opportunities connected to TCK and global nomads. Different children within families and different families experience these transitions in a variety of ways. Understanding the cultural issues helps us to prepare our children for these transitions.

Ice breaker Introduce yourselves at your tables. Where are you from? What is the biggest challenge for you living in Luanda? (yellow post it) What do you think is the biggest challenge for your child/children? (green post it)

Robin Pascoe - What is a third culture kid?

TCK & Global Nomad Third Culture Kid: someone who has spent a significant part of their developmental years overseas Global Nomad: someone who has spent a significant part of their time/childhood overseas because of their father's career

How do you know you are a TCK? 1.To everyone’s confusion, your accent changes depending on who you’re talking to. 2.You have a love-hate relationship with the question “Where are you from?” 3.Your circle of best friends is as politically, racially, and religiously diverse as the United Nations. 4.You get nervous whenever a form needs you to enter a “permanent address.” 5.Love it or hate it, you have a strong and well-informed opinion on the I.B. system. 6.And, no matter how many you say, good-byes never get easier.
