El Proyecto Colibrí: Crear de la "nada" proviene de la leyenda Amerindia del colibrí que inspiró a Wangari Maathai, la primera mujer africana en recibir el Premio Nobel de la Paz. Ella inició el movimiento Green Belt que replantó millones de árboles para detener la desertificación en Kenia. El colibrí lucha solo contra un enorme incendio forestal, mientras los demás animales lo observan volar del río al bosque con una gota de agua en su pequeño pico. Al ser ridiculizado por los otros animales, el colibrí responde... "Estoy haciendo lo mejor que puedo". La ambición del Proyecto Colibrí es similar: crear a partir de un objeto para reciclar, hacer lo mejor que uno pueda, darse un respiro en el cual las manos vuelven a su función primordial de creación.

She launched the Green Belt movement which has replanted millions of trees to stop the desertification of Kenya.

To the animals that mock him, the hummingbird answers... "I do my best". The ambition of the Hummingbird Project is similar: to create from an object to be recycled, to do one's best, to offer oneself a break during which the hands find their first role of creation.

La mondialisation de la scolarisation est devenue un axe fort de recherche dans le domaine de l'éducation internationale. Cependant, peu d'universitaires se sont véritablement penchés sur des modèles concrets d'écoles mondialisées. Deux siècles d'enseignement français à New York présente l'histoire des écoles françaises hors de France, et plus particulièrement des écoles françaises à New York, et vise à souligner que le réseau de plus de 490 écoles françaises dans 130 pays constitue un champ de recherche fructueux sur la mise en pratique de la mondialisation au sein de l'enseignement primaire et secondaire.¿Une étude de cas du Lycée Français de New York (1935 - aujourd'hui) et d'autres écoles françaises à New York explore le fonctionnement du système éducatif national français non seulement au-delà de ses frontières hexagonales, mais aussi au-delà de la mission civilisatrice coloniale mise en place dans les territoires colonisés par la France. L'histoire de ces écoles new-yorkaises, remontant au début du XIXe siècle, propose également un aperçu de la diplomatie culturelle française et de la nature changeante des relations franco-américaines au cours des XIXe, XXe et XXIe siècles.
