Global Citizen
GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP

Three Conceptual Problems


GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP
1. No global government

Global citizenship – no legal category


Filipino citizenship – legal category

But I am accountable to the humanity (pagkatao, not the concept of


“individual person”), so I have both the ethical and moral categories.
GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP
2. Hard to muster sentiments
national sentiment – easy
global sentiment – difficult (like climate change)

no global anthem
no global flag
no identity
GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP
3. “Elitism”

Globalization is perceived to be “elitist” and cosmopolitan.

Challenge: DEPART from “elitism”

Greta Thunberg – Swedish environmental activist


Efren Penaflorida – Filipino educator/2009 CNN Hero of the Year
Yousafzai Malala – Pakistani education activist
THE CHALLENGE

1. Global problem requires global solutions.


2. Human dignity is global and universal.
3. Forcing ourselves to think outside of our country expands our
ethical horizons.
