I hereby pledge to live as a Global Citizen
throughout my life from this day forward.
I will strive for a deeper understanding of the root causes of
poverty and seek innovative means to address them.
I understand that my actions will have consequences
that will have an impact on other parts of the world
as well as future generations.
I will take it upon myself to think critically about
the social and environmental consequences of my actions.
I will make purchases carefully, taking into account
the social and environmental factors of the creation
and transport of all consumer goods.
I will minimize the waste I produce and
make a positive impact on the environment.
I will build awareness about issues of social and environmental
justice in any and all communities that I am a part of.
In whatever field I find myself employed, I will do everything
I can to ensure that it adheres to the utmost standards of
social and environmental consideration.
I understand that the only way to truly achieve lasting change
is to further develop a globally connected mindset
and engage those around me to foster fair, equal
and sustained partnerships with others in this world.
For this reason I, as a Global Citizen, will strive to reach
a deeper understanding of issues relevant to global poverty
and act with compassion, serving as an advocate
and activist for positive change in the world.
