Global citizenship education (GCE) is a crucial topic in the realm of
education and development discourses, particularly in the context of an
increasingly globalized world. The impacts of globalization are
widespread, influencing social, cultural, economic, political,
environmental, and technological aspects. This necessitates an
educational approach that can empower learners to become actively
engaged global citizens who grasp the interconnectedness of global
issues, diverse cultures, and their role in addressing global challenges.

the importance of learners becoming part of and connected to the larger context, such as
the global economy. This emphasis on global citizenship challenges education institutions
