In light of the triple threats of pandemic, economic collapse, and systemic racism, global citizenship takes on a whole new meaning, and interconnectivity through the digital media allows us to experience and impact the world in more expansive ways than ever before. With this new international reach comes responsibility to care for our local communities and others on the planet who are impacted by our actions and decisions. Given these new realities, how do we ensure our practices and solutions meet increasingly complex challenges at the local and planetary levels?
