GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP

  • Embraces diversity and demonstrates tolerance, respect, understanding, empathy, and consideration towards those from different cultures, races, religions, physical and mental abilities, ideologies, and backgrounds.
  • Is willing to learn from different cultures and take action to facilitate cooperation at all levels.
  •  Treats others equally and is willing to work cooperatively with peoples of diverse cultures, belief systems and ideologies.
  • Seeks to understand current events and issues and their impact upon societies worldwide.
