What does it mean to be a citizen of the world? How can we transcend the boundaries that divide us while honoring our unique identities? Can patriotism be as divisive as it is unifying? In a world on fire, how will we deal with climate refugees?

In this episode, our host, Hawah Kasat, sits down with David Gallup, president of the World Service Authority (WSA), to discuss the concept of world citizenship. David shares his decades-long advocacy for international human rights and the vision for a world where our identity transcends national borders.
