Sustainability & Global Citizenship
At Dulwich College Shanghai Pudong, we aim for our staff and students to 'Live Worldwise'. This means Sustainability and Global Citizenship are infused and embedded across our whole organisation. Our goal is to encourage our communities to make informed choices, take inspired action and create positive impact.
As part of a holistic education, we are committed to providing purpose-driven learning experiences that are guided by a deep sense of connection to people and the planet.
Through our curriculum and co-curricular programme, we encourage our students to think, feel, speak and act with empathy and understanding, building awareness and commitment to ensure we collectively make a positive impact.
Our Global Citizenship Vision, Mission, and Pillars
We break Global Citizenship down into three core pillars.Interculturalism & Diversity
We embrace learning about a multitude of local and global cultures – their attitudes, beliefs, norms, and values – to gain deeper cultural understanding, connection, and empathy towards everyone.
We live diversity through our inclusive culture that values every individual. We do this through respecting, and sharing every voice within our community, to create a place where everyone feels as though they belong.
Social Justice
We encourage our students to fight for social justice by doing what they can to be positive agents of change, promote fairness and create equitable opportunities for all regardless of who they are or where they are from. We act to ensure everyone, everywhere, is safe, valued and has a bright future.
Sustainability
We strive to find the balance between providing for our human needs and preserving the planet for future generations. We aim to experience harmony with nature while advocating for animals and the environment. We believe in doing as much good as we can.
These three pillars are underpinned by an individual and collective responsibility to take action to make a positive difference.
Service
We believe service learning should develop a student's passion for making a positive difference in the world and inspire a culture of care and understanding for others. Service learning, and serving others, is integral to the formation of character and should be an intrinsic part of every child's education so that it becomes a habit for life.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
As an organisation, we are also committed to developing, measuring, and maintaining sustainable practices. Each year, we publish a report to show the progress we have made against our ESG goals. This important document says so much about who we are as a community. It is a window into what is really important to us.
The four pillars of Learning, Planet, People & Policy provide a framework for review and a roadmap for the future. These reports are created via a collaborative process between our students, parents, and teachers and led by our Global Citizenship team.
