Mission
The English part of the Global Student Forum has the same mission as that of other countries:
To enable school students, of all faiths and none, to think carefully about the spiritual, moral, social and cultural issues underlying global citizenship, and to help others to do the same.
In England we seek to provide:
- a national conference in London on the first Monday of July each year, for Year 12 students
- a Peer Educator Pack for them to take back and use in their school
- a copy of all of the materials used in the national conference so that they can run their own local Global Student Forum conference for other schools in their area
The subject covered in each conference (and associated material) will change each year - but will always focus on some aspect of Global Citizenship and will enable the students to think (and then peer-educate) beyond the superficial to the underlying spiritual and moral issues that are raised.
