In 2016 when the UN DPI/NGO Annual Conference took place in Asia for the first time, H.E. Mr. Ban Ki-moon, the then UN Secretary-General, stated at the opening of the conference, “Education is critical to nurture global citizens who can rise to the challenges of the 21st century.” He urged all NGOs to work together with the United Nations to promote education for global citizenship. The meeting was attended by over 2500 NGO delegates from more than 100 nations. Over 100 international volunteers for the movement of An Era of Conscience (ANEOC) traveled to Korea to promote the endorsement of the “Declaration for the Movement of An Era of Conscience” and “Declaration of World Citizens.” The volunteers also shared the ANEOC movement with Mr. Ban.
