"A commitment to encouraging global citizenship through education" - AI Principle #6
In alignment with the Sixth Principle of the United Nations Academic Impact, the Global Citizenship Hub aims to act as a unique online portal for the dissemination and sharing of knowledge on those topics relevant to the practice of Global Citizenship in higher education, and to help create a global, intellectual community amongst all those dedicated to its evolving philosophical principles. The Lehigh University Global Citizenship Program, in cooperation with the Lehigh University United Nations Partnership, is proud to host this exciting step forward in the development of this inter-disciplinary field and contribute to the overall mission of the United Nations Academic Impact."Be prepared about how you can contribute as the world leaders and global citizens of tomorrow. Try to have a bigger vision, broader vision... You are citizens of this global community, where each and every one of you has to work together, try to resolve all of these issues which are interconnected. Try to have broader, comprehensive views; try to develop your capacity... be a proud global citizen." Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, 21 April, 2011Credit: UN Photo 470637
