Abstract

The Educational policy is a fundamental pillar for building active citizenship and providing the individuals with the knowledge, values, and skills that enable them to participate effectively in sustainable development. In fact, education is a strategic tool for building a just and participatory society. Active citizenship is impossible without constructive and productive educational policies that instill values of belonging, promote civic engagement, and build a democratic culture that enshrines the principles of dialogue, tolerance, cooperation, and the rejection of violence within all segments of society. In this concern, the Canadian model stands out as a successful example of integrating education with active citizenship, while the Lebanese experience has faced challenges that have hindered the provision of sufficient funding for developing educational infrastructure and integrating the concepts of sustainability and citizenship into the educational process, in addition to sectarianism, political division, and weak equal opportunities. This research seeks to highlight the interrelationship between these elements and offer practical recommendations for strengthening them within a sound scientific framework.
