BECOMING global citizens is no longer optional. It is essential for building a sustainable and peaceful future. As advances in technology, transportation and communication bring people, cultures and economies ever closer, the need to nurture a sense of global citizenship has become more pressing than ever.
One key reason is the shared nature of global challenges like environmental degradation, climate change, pandemics, economic inequality and conflicts that transcend borders and require collective action that affect all nations regardless of their level of development.
In this context, today’s youths must be prepared not only to live in their own countries but also to function as responsible and active members of a global community.
