Abstract
This article examines the formation and development of global education and the corresponding global educational policy. Although the concept of citizenship has historically been associated with the rights and responsibilities of those who were bound by a certain territory and, consequently, by a state, citizens of the world understand the need to take responsibility for the well-being of humanity and the planet as a whole. Therefore, the development of world citizens can be considered the ultimate goal of global education and, consequently, global education policy. The research is based on taking into account the methodological foundations of the concepts of global scientists in the field of education regarding the terminology of global education, international education, global competencies and global citizenship. Global education is considered as one of the ways of modern teaching aimed at preparing students for global citizenship in a complex interconnected world, taking into account the formation of global competencies of political, economic, socio-cultural and environmental orientation. The article presents a retrospective analysis of the formation and development of global education, taking into account the state of the geopolitical climate.
