Abstract
This study analyzes the case of global citizenship education (GCED) in teacher education colleges in the Philippines and draws out its features to find implications for GCED in teacher education colleges. To this end, Philippine Normal University (PNU), a leading participant in GCED in the Philippines, was selected and analyzed in terms of the program’s purpose and background, curriculum and research, and management system. Analysis shows that the PNU has been actively engaged in GCED based on its historical background in women and human rights studies. The PNU's GCED program mainly adopted the concept of GCED presented by UNESCO while emphasizing the behavioral dimension. This case demonstrates that the areas of GCED to which teacher education colleges can contribute are diverse, encompassing pre-service and in-service teacher education and research. Teacher education colleges can play a leading role in expanding GCED in a country through their active engagement in the agenda demonstrated by institutional leadership and collaboration with international organizations.
