Global Responsibility

Global responsibility refers to the fact that the world today consists of one global community. This creates a need for individuals to consider the impact of their actions on a global scale. Thus, global responsibility focuses on the competencies of humanitarianism and civic engagement. Humanitarianism includes having an understanding and appreciation of human differences, the ability to learn about and interact effectively with people from different cultures coupled with overall social responsibility. Civic engagement includes a sense of civic responsibility, commitment to public life through communities of practice, the ability to engage in principled dissent, and effective leadership.
