EU-AU Global Citizenship Programme Overview
Global citizens can effect change. We cannot stop terrorism with more and better security and weapons alone. We must seek to change how people conceive their roles in society. We may understand the science of climate change, but understanding how to change ourselves is another matter. The Global Citizenship programme provides students with a deeper understanding of the cultural and political dimensions of change, and of their potential role in developing a conception of citizenship geared to the needs of a rapidly globalising world.
The EU-AU Global Citizenship Program is a new program for undergraduate students in Australia and Europe.
The program offers Australian and European students with an interest in globalisation, international relations, development studies and languages an opportunity to prepare themselves as global citizens and leaders. Successful applicants receive scholarships to study at overseas universities as part of their undergraduate degree studies accredited by their own university.
In short, participating students at one of the Australian participating universities have the opportunity to study at a European university for a semester, and to attend an intensive school at another European university.
