Civic education is not only an educational issue, but also the foundation and development of the country. With the advent of the era of globalization, global civic education has gradually become an inevitable trend in the development of civic education, and it is also the pursuit of modernity in civic education. College students are in the important period of the transformation of their identity relationship. They are experiencing the transformation from “school citizenship” to “social citizenship”. The value orientation of global citizenship education in China's colleges and universities is directly related to the future development of global civil society. Under the background of globalization, global civic education in China's colleges and universities attempts to explore and summarize the five values of orientation based on fairness and justice, guided by democratic rationality, with respect for tolerance, national characteristics and sustainable development.
