Global Citizen

Global Citizen is an international non-profit organization with headquarters in Denmark. The goal of Global Citizen is to facilitate the generation of solutions to a wide range of issues we are facing in a globalised world. We firmly believe that profound knowledge is a prerequisite for generating the solutions we need, but this is where we have come across a problem which we believe to be rather common: How to ensure overview, sense of proportion and the requested information in a quick and easy manner? There is tons of information available, but finding the relevant resources can be an incredibly time consuming task. In an effort to address this very problem, we began developing Global Citizen as an attempt to navigate the area between breaking news and heavy science. The idea itself dates back to the year 2000, but it was not until 2008 that the idea was developed into an actual project - and we are still working on it. Our organization currently consists of 10 fulltime employees. We also have a number of volunteers and our network includes around 70 people from more than 30 different countries from all over the world. But this is only the beginning.
