The Global Citizen
Oxfam sees the global citizen as someone who:
• Is aware of the wider world and has a sense of their own role as a world citizen.
• Respects and values diversity.
• Has an understanding of how the world works.
• Is passionately committed to social justice.
• Participates in the community at a range of levels, from the local to the global.
• Works with others to make the world a more equitable and sustainable place.
• Takes responsibility for their actions.
Global citizenship enriches all areas of the school curriculum, and each subject has an important contribution to make in developing the key elements
A whole-school approach to global citizenship
Our experience is that embedding global citizenship across all areas of school life results in the greatest impacts and benefits for learners. As a perspective on the world shared within a school, global citizenship provides purpose, motivation and coherence in teaching and learning while reinforcing key skills and values through learners’ wider experience of school life.

‘I have a long-held passion for exploring the complexity and diversity of human responses to the big issues of the day. I believe teachers need to be given the space and time to unpack their own views, attitudes and values in order to teach about global and local issues in an ethical and open way. I specialize in facilitation of group learning, where how you relate to others is as important as what you learn.’
