CGCER is led by its two founding Co-Directors, Professors Lynette Shultz and Ali A. Abdi, who are both full-time faculty members in the Department of Educational Policy Studies. CGCER is accountable to the Governing Council and to the Dean of the Faculty of Education. Additionally, the Advisory Committee is comprised of members from the university (both faculty and students), and from the wider community.
CGCER builds upon the extensive work already achieved by the Global Education Network (GEN) in the department. In continuing with these initiatives, CGCER strives to enhance the University of Alberta’s reputation as a major contributor and leader in the field of global citizenship education and international education.
CGCER is located in the Education North Building, Room 5-182 G.
