our world is an increasingly

• Global citizenship is a concept that

has produced varied and
contested understandings, not the
least of which is the argument that
the privilege of legal status
inherently associated with national
citizenship is not a feature of
global citizenship.

• To be effective Global Citizens, young people need

to be flexible, creative and proactive. They need to
be able to solve problems, make decisions, think
critically, communicate ideas effectively and work
well within teams and groups. These skills and
attributes are increasingly recognized as being
essential to succeed in other areas of 21st century
life too, including many workplaces. These skills
and qualities cannot be developed without the use
of active learning methods through which pupils
learn by doing and by collaborating with others.

• Global citizenship exists at various levels, in numerous

contexts and at different times, with no single
identifiable institutional framework. In the new world
order, it seeks to expand its scope and democratize a
decision-making process that can radically affect basic
aspects of our societies, especially in people’s lives,
particularly those of minorities and the disadvantaged.
Global citizens act without limits or geographical
distinctions and they do so outside the traditional
spheres of power. Their goal is to defend human dignity
and to promote social accountability and international
solidarity, in which tolerance, inclusion and recognition
of diversity occupy pride of place in word and deed,
reflecting the multiplicity of actors involved in the
actions of global citizenship.
