The World Civic Forum (WCF) “Building Our Humanitarian Planet”

The themes suggest a necessity for reflection and dialogue to address the global challenges facing humanity and future civilizations. Civic Values have to do with people’s perception, understanding, belief, and judgment that typically promote but sometimes hamper a maturation of humanity and civilization. Civic Engagement refers to network, organization, alliance, and partnership in diverse levels and fashions that may contribute to public and global governance. Civic Action involves movement, campaign, and decisionmaking by a wide range of actors as a reflection of their endeavor to solve global problems including climate change.
