To become a global citizen during your study-abroad experience, immerse yourself in the local culture. Engage with communities, learn the language, and participate in cultural events. This fosters empathy and cross-cultural understanding.
Build diverse relationships by connecting with local students and international peers. These interactions broaden perspectives and challenge stereotypes, essential for global citizenship.
Volunteer or intern locally to address global challenges like sustainability or inequality. Practical involvement deepens your awareness of worldwide issues and your role in solving them.
Reflect on your experiences regularly. Journaling or discussing insights with mentors helps internalize lessons and grow as a global citizen.
