Year 9 Civics and Global Citizenship

One Semester

Subject Overview

In 2026 the world faces many challenges. These issues include vital issues like food security, climate change and refugees. These challenges are environmental, social and political.

In this subject, we look at the issues from multiple perspectives. We also go beyond merely identifying the causes of the problem. We will look at how we, as global citizens, can bring about grassroots change.

We take the quote, “Be the change you want to see in the world” seriously.

Please note this is a condensed version of the full course, so therefore you cannot select both.
