What makes a Future Friendly School? Through this participatory process, you will help to identify and prioritize the most relevant indicators for certification across our three focus areas of environmental stewardship, student voice, and global citizenship. We appreciate your participation and look forward to your insights! This page is for voting, commenting on, and suggesting new indicators in the area of global citizenship. You can switch to the other certification indicators through the links in the header.

Students are provided with practical and supportive learning experience.
Students need to learn in an internactive and practical way through workshops, internships, interest clubs, own teaching / research work, etc. And at each step they should be able to benefit from the support, coaching and mentoring by the educational institution. This is what we want to doat MEGA, Moldovan Environmental Governance Academy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHEOMNwGu_U).

Helping young minds to understand the value of living without any boundaries in this new world
Sharing good things about different cultures. Giving students role models from all over the world not only from their own country. Helping them to find common things among them and people of other countries. Helping them to communicate with people from all over the world through video chats and conferences (if not possible to meet directly). Teach them to love common things but always respect the differences because nothing is good or bad, it is only the perception. Organize events(dress competitions, discussions, food festivals, art competitions, skits) and quiz about different cultures and traditions.

Don't let school's canteen sells more food with styrofoam!
There are some schools in my country, especially my school, its canteen sells more food with styrofoam than food packed in healthy way. In fact, styrofoam has been the most dangerous litter because it contains a substance that can produce cancers virus. Besides, it is also the kind of litter that cannot be recycled for a very long time. And it makes the students hard to live in healthy and green way.

Future friendly school should be based on practical work.
Based on social and moral values, today we are unable to provide moral education in the school. Present education is becoming on the basis of grade. No body thinking about values, students should learn all human values which is more important for overall development.

Global citizenship should include teaching our next generation that war does not "serve any nation" or it's people.
USA in particular, now ranks #88 in Global peace due to its ongoing and unsustainable practice of aggressive foreign policy, which has nothing in reality to do with protecting "freedom and security". It's about oil, arms sales, global "power", all drastically undermining the principals of environmental stewardship, student voice and basic human rights, and global citizenship. We need to stop extolling "virtue" over violence, weapons and killing. It's the number one factor driving shootings in places like an elementary school to begin with!

Civics education should include information on different voting systems and how the type of voting system used can affect the outcome.
Most developed countries use proportional voting systems that promote a more consensual type of government and a more civilized style of politics. http://FairVote.org

Service projects for students to help them understand how others live around the globe and in their own back yard.
Most students don't get an opportunity to experience life in other cultures. Service projects are a great way to help teach compassion while gaining a better perspective on the true difference between wants and needs.

Inclusive learning environement. Self-awarness. Discovery of talents.
Rather then imposing a pre-conceived curriculum, learning in a project based approach would be more motivating and would not associate a student with a grade, rather, with his level of accomplishment. The necessary knowledge and competence would be inter-wounded and necessary for the completion of each project and student would pass to the next when ready. There should be inclusive learning environments , where students can identify their talents and put more effort in developing these. Here the teacher would play the role a mentor, guiding the student who is self-aware of the importance of his role as global citizen…
