What are working with other countries?Show answer
Because the threats of globalisation cross borders, no country can tackle them alone, so cooperation with other countries is essential. Countries share information about disease outbreaks, terrorism and crime, coordinate their responses, and agree common rules. For example, during a global disease outbreak, countries share data and work together to slow its spread. International cooperation lets a country tap the knowledge and effort of many, which is more effective than acting alone against a global threat.
