Abstract
Belonging and identity emerge as central themes across these papers, which span diverse cultural and geographic contexts. The narratives of a Black American teacher in Korea, international graduate students’ teaching challenges, and broader cultural worldviews of belonging all reveal the complexities of identity construction. The roundtable invites participants to consider how transnational experiences, and local traditions intersect to shape belonging in education.
