It also aims at familiarizing the learners with their own region, making them understand how various local and global regions are interdependent and how the developments in one region affect the other parts of the world.
This series has been designed to present the concepts in a simple yet engaging manner. Each chapter has embedded exercises and activities to make learning more meaningful and enable the learners to make connections with the wider world.
