Citizenship Education

Citizenship education is the process of teaching individuals about their roles, rights, and responsibilities as members of a community and a nation. It encompasses understanding democratic values, civic participation, social justice, and the rule of law. The aim is to foster informed, active, and responsible citizens who can engage in society, contribute to the common good, and make informed decisions, whether in voting, volunteering, or advocating for change. By promoting critical thinking and awareness of social issues, citizenship education empowers individuals to participate meaningfully in their communities and the democratic process.
