Global Citizen Projects

Global Citizen Educational Project – Wings 4th Edition The main goal of Global Citizen is to provide an international experience for young students

without making them leave their city. The project aims to stimulate high-school students from

public and private schools to think about their role and positioning on society. The sessions are

going to provide them a better perspective of world, improvement of cultural tolerance and

awareness about social responsibility through discussions of topics related to entrepreneurship,

environmental issues, leadership and globalization. We hope to let them well prepared for the labor

market, and to make them realize about their role as local leaders, doing their job as young citizens

with more responsibility. The project also aims to make these young people more interested in

extracurricular activities.

The activities are going to be delivered by ten interns per cycle, and

they will be allocated in groups to organize the activities in all

schools.

The program works with two cycles of activities: the first one occurs

in May/June, and the second one in August/September. In each

cycle we propose two weeks of activities per school.

The focus of the project is high-school, a student phase which has

great opportunities to increase the global mindset of the students

and to aware them about how much they can change their society.

The educational project envisions working with 4 schools

of São Carlos, private and public ones, in order to

increase our positive impact on students.

What is the project?

The Global Citizen - Third Sector is a National Project which aims to improve the institutions
