Global citizenship: a high school educator's guide (grades 9-12)

Global Citizenship is a unit of four lessons designed to introduce the concept of global citizenship and place it in the context of international human rights; to engage students in a guided inquiry into the meaning of global citizenship and its relationship to national citizenship; to educate about how the United Nations has framed global rights and responsibilities for the 21st century and is acting on them via the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs); and to investigate how the U.S. Fund for UNICEF has engaged individuals in support of global citizenship as well as to engage students in designing and implementing a plan to act locally in support of global issues.
