The (Re)flect Podcast: Who Teaches Character in the 21st Century?

“I believe introspection, in many ways, is the most important process of creating - or rather, uncovering - knowledge. It is only in light of reflecting on myself and through myself that I can encounter and uncover reality. As a Muslim, it also constitutes one of the most foundational imperatives of the Qur’an; humans are called to meditate, think, remember, and reflect on creation and on oneself.”

 - Hamed Ghofrani

Tune in for an episode featuring Hamed Ghofrani as he (re)flects on the question of character education from a philosophical and historical point of view. With all the changes to our lives globally in 21st century, he explores the question of who is in charge of educating good human beings or citizens.

The focus of this introspection is the role of tradition – or the absence of it – in the moral and character education of our youth.
