"Globalism starts at home. Get involved in your local community. Don't be afraid to make mistakes," said Kofi Annan '61 while visiting Macalester's new Institute for Global Citizenship, which promotes learning, scholarship, and service focused on civic engagement and global leadership locally, nationally, and internationally.
