In the present research article, we conduct a historical review that allows us to understand the emergence and trajectory of Global Citizenship Education in Colombia. Also, we describe some educational experiences that promote Global Citizenship Education in this country, which shed light on the identification of clues to promote this type of education in this and other countries with similar contextual characteristics. Based on these experiences, we argue that, in societies fractured by all types of violence, such as the Colombian society, Global Citizenship Education may contribute to peace building, at least in three ways: 1) making visible the historically hidden voices and worldviews; 2) fostering the possibility to overcome the opposition between the local and the global, which does not allow to address the complexities of social conflict; and 3) promoting the construction of critical subjectivities committed with social transformation.

Palabras clave : education; citizenship; peace; social change; Colombia.
