Global Citizenship Day    
October 29

Citizenship of the Global Community, which will exist by virtue of a Treaty between nation governments and the Global Constitution of the Global Community, is conferred on everyone who is a citizen of a Member State. And October 29 of every year is a special day to participate in the ceremonies of those becoming Global Citizens. The Global Community citizenship is additional to, and does not replace, national citizenship. Election by universal suffrage when conducted by all Member States, will give the Global Community Parliament full legitimacy. By voting in its elections the citizens of the Global Community enhance its status and influence. 

The Global Community citizenship gives citizens the right of free movement and residence in the territory of the Member States, the right to vote and stand for election in the Global Community and local elections, the right to diplomatic protection in third countries, as well as:

- the right to petition the Global Community Parliament;
- the right to bring complaints before the Global Community Ombudsman;
- the right to address any of the Global Community institutions or bodies in one of the official languages and to receive an answer in the same language.

You may be eligible to become a citizen of the Global Community. 

To become a citizen of the Global Community you may be:

*     a person
*     a global community
*     an institution
*     a town, city or province
*     a state or a nation
*     a business   
*     an NGO
*     a group of people who decided to unite for the better of everyone participating in the relationship, or you may be
*     an international organization

The Global Community Citizenship is given to anyone who accepts the Criteria of the Global Community Citizenship as a way of life . It is time now to take the oath of global community citizenship. We all belong to this greater whole, the Earth, the only known place in the universe we can call our home.
A very important legislation is the Global Citizens Rights, Responsibility and Accountability Act which, after its approval by Global Parliament, will define rights, responsibility and accountability of all global citizens. Each and everyone of us will make decisions, deal with one another, and basically conduct our actions as per the Act. The final document was brought forward for approval during the Tenth Global Meeting of the Global Community Earth Government , Fall 2006. People from all nations of the world, and all National Governments, are invited to amend the proposed document (see Press Release Feb. 26, 2006 ).
Before you make your decision, we are asking you to read very carefully the Criteria of the Global Community Citizenship, make sure you understand every part of the criteria, and then make the oath of belonging to the Global Community, the human family, Earth Community and Earth Government.

You do not need to let go the citizenship you already have. No! You can still be a citizen of any nation on Earth. The nation you belong to can be called 'a global community'. But you are a better human being as you belong also to the Global Community, and you have now higher values to live a life, to sustain yourself and all life on the planet. 

You have become a person with a heart, a mind and Soul of the same as that of the Global Community.

The Global Community welcomes you!
