  • Antoinnette Dugbley
    This course has been incredibly educative and has provided a strong foundation for understanding GCED. It taught me that being a global citizen is a selfless responsibility that requires us to look beyond our own borders and care for the entire human family.
    A key part of the experience was learning about Media Literacy and Critical Thinking. I now see that in a connected world, spreading the truth and verifying information are vital ways to protect our grand society. The course also highlighted how empathy and collaboration are the most effective tools for solving global challenges together.
    I am finishing this workshop with a new perspective on how to 'lift as I climb' and advocate for a world where everyone has a fair chance to succeed. It was a truly valuable experience that has prepared me to be a more responsible and informed leader for the common good.
  • SHARRAN LOGANADZAN
    The COURSE for the 12th Youth Leadership Workshop on GCED is a powerful foundation for aspiring global leaders. It clearly explains key concepts like global citizenship, peacebuilding, and sustainability, while encouraging critical thinking, empathy, and self-reflection.

    Through interactive modules and reflective exercises, the course connects theory to real-world challenges, including media influence and social responsibility. It emphasizes that being a global citizen means taking meaningful action, not just awareness.

    Overall, the course is insightful, engaging, and inspiring, equipping participants with the knowledge, skills, and mindset to contribute toward a more peaceful, inclusive, and sustainable world. Thank you so much, I truly enjoyed it and am optimistic about the Workshop.

    i really enjoy this course cause it opened my mind in so many different ways that helped me a lot.
  • Andreea-Alexandra Suciu
    This course provided a sophisticated framework for connecting historical narratives with modern civic responsibility. As a student of History, Memory, and Orality, I particularly appreciated how the modules addressed the ethical implications of storytelling in post-conflict societies. The transition from theoretical 'global citizenship' to practical 'local action' mirrors my own research on the 1989 Romanian Revolution, where I analyzed how youth agency can dismantle authoritarian structures. This course is an essential bridge for anyone looking to turn academic historical insights into active peacebuilding strategies.

It has inspired me, as a teacher and advocate, to guide students and communities toward becoming responsible and engaged global citizens.
