Societies across the world have long lived according to principles that emphasize solidarity, dialogue and respect for diversity. It is from this rich well of practices that UNESCOโs Global Citizenship Education (GCED) programme draws inspiration -- to instill in learners the skills, values, attitudes and behaviors to โlive togetherโ and help shape more peaceful, sustainable societies and world. GCED is not a new concept, but an aspiration long-held across the world.
