19. Global Citizens by Mark Gerzon
“We are all global citizens.
We have the power to create a
better world.”
Published in the
U.S. as
American
Citizen, Global
Citizen
Global citizens: how our vision of the world is outdated, and what we can do about it

20. The Five Stages of Becoming a Global Citizen
• Citizen 1.0 – Worldview based on one‟s self
(egocentric)
• Citizen 2.0 – Worldview based on one‟s group
(ideocentric) Citizen 3.0 – Worldview based on
one‟s nation (sociocentric)
• Citizen 4.0 – Worldview based on multiple cultures
(multicentric)
• Citizen 5.0 – Worldview based on the whole Earth
(geocentric)
21. Four Main Actions Required for
Developing Global Citizenship
• Witnessing – opening our eyes
• Learning – opening our minds
• Connecting – opening our hearts
• Geo-partnering – opening our hands
22. “The truth is that we are all profoundly affected
by the decisions and actions of people whose
faces we may never see, whose language we
may never speak, and whose names we would
not recognize – and they, too, are affected by
us. Our well-being and in some cases our
survival, depends on recognizing this truth and
taking responsibility as global citizens for it.”
~Mark Gerzon, American Citizen,
Global Citizen, p. xii
23. “The shift of worldviews begins with Einstein‟s
counsel: „We cannot solve problems at the same
level of awareness that created them.‟ So even
as we pledge our loyalty to different
nations, carry different currencies, serve in
opposing armies, and follow different
leaders, we must shift our level of awareness to
include what is global.”
~Mark Gerzon, American Citizen, Global
Citizen, pp. xvii-xviii

How can we help students develop
global competence?
41. “Teaching students about the
world is not a subject in
itself, separate from other content
areas, but should be an integral
part of all subjects taught. We need
to open global gateways and
inspire students to explore beyond
their national borders.”
Vivien Stewart, “Becoming Citizens of the World,”
Educational Leadership, April 2007
