My research on glocalization and glocal development is a contesting framework; it seeks to challenge, oppose and disrupt the hegemonic western viewpoint. Rather than being apologetic or staying silent, non-western communities should become more vocal in protesting the hegemony of western worldviews. Development communication models espoused Western worldviews of the developing world legitimating an ongoing transfer and application of Western ideals, with little room for the non-western world to share developing world perspectives based on their lived experience. It is necessary to contest the dominant development communication paradigms which regard the developing world as “in need of fixing or revitalisation”, treating developing community enhancement and progress as a ‘reconstruction project’ among first world superpowers.

Abstract
Several contested concepts are introduced and critically reviewed to explore the role of glocal (local and global) communities as partners in promoting sustainable social change. In order for Glocal Development (GD) and Glocalization of Learning to contribute to sustainable social change as outlined in the 2030 sustainable development goals (SDGs), it is necessary for international higher education to mobilize as a social responsibility community engagement agent. To this end, it is proposed that a Higher Education Social Responsibility (HESR) Strategy be implemented within and across glocal higher education institutions to generate HESR funds that will enable adoption of one or several of the 2030 SDGs (relevant to their strengths and to their stakeholder community needs).
Glocal Development and the Glocal Engagement Framework encourage the building of glocal communities through the respectful co-construction of knowledge from indigenous, local, and global community knowledge perspectives. The GEF provides international higher education opportunity to adopt the 2030 Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) in an effort to focus on Glocal Development.
The author asserts that international higher education can play a significant role in the delivery of the 2030 Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) if it adopts the Glocal Engagement Framework to promote the glocalization of learning. In subscribing to the critical paradigm, the author challenges the “old development communication paradigm,” which dichotomized glocal community needs and aspirations in the early decades of the last century.
