People who have a sense of agency regarding global issues care about future generations and so act to preserve the environmental integrity of the planet.
They exercise agency with critical awareness of the fact that other people might have a different vision of what humanity needs, and they are open to reflecting on and changing their vision as they learn about those different perspectives.    
The capacity to take action is seen as the culmination of the knowledge, skills and attitudes acquired. People who have knowledge of global and intercultural issues, who are able to understand the perspectives of others and who have interest in other cultures should also be able to translate such positive attributes into actions that benefit their local communities and the world in which they live (Milfont and Sibley, 2012).
