In a talk show with the theme "Training global citizen thinking" recently held at the University of Foreign Languages (University of Danang), students showed great interest in the issue of necessary factors to become global citizens.
Many students are concerned that in the current context, Da Nang is the second most attractive city in the world (after Tokyo) for digital nomads.
"This means that young people in Da Nang are facing opportunities and challenges to equip themselves with the skills to adapt to global trends and survive the increasingly heated labor competition right here in Da Nang," a student asked.

Sharing with students, experts said that nowadays, global citizenship is no longer a distant concept. Global citizenship thinking is no longer a necessary factor in the development of people in the 21st century.
This is a story that must happen here, now, not in the future or somewhere else.
The portrait of a global citizen therefore no longer refers to people living and working in many countries, but rather to each person's understanding and adaptation to new cultures and new lifestyles.
An individual today will be impacted and, in turn, can create value and influence communities globally no matter where he or she is.
At the seminar, Mr. Ho Thanh Binh - Deputy Director of the Institute of Educational Technology (CGD) - shared that understanding the qualities and skills needed to become a global citizen in the current context is very important.
Young people need to focus on preparing their thinking, knowledge, communication skills, cultural understanding and awareness of global issues.
"This knowledge not only helps students develop themselves, but also helps them become active contributors to the community and society, become active, responsible citizens and have the ability to integrate and cooperate with everyone, regardless of culture, nationality or language," Mr. Binh shared.

According to Mr. Joe Kenny - co-founder of Zeeko Education Technology Company (Ireland), the importance of essential skills to become an entrepreneur in a global environment are communication skills, cooperation, problem solving, critical thinking. These skills must be honed over a long period of time.
"Each young person must create their own strengths and differences. Not only must they surpass and break through their friends at school and in the country, but they must also compete with opponents in other countries," Mr. Joe advised.
