GCI empowers young global citizens from all sectors of society to be lifelong leaders of positive change. We envision a global community where individuals embrace their unique colorful stories and cultures as they design and implement solutions to global issues that transcend social, economic and political boundaries. We yearn for a more peaceful and stable world of tomorrow, founded on the universal acceptance of shared fundamental values and a common denominator: that we are all human. We prize and celebrate innovative thinking, individual initiative, scholarship, religious plurality, cultural diversity and environmental sustainability.
