Abstract
This study aims to analyze the conceptions of Brazilian university professors about the rinciples of Education for Global Citizenship (ECG) and the internationalization of higher education, as well as present subsidies for reflection on the teaching practice in higher education. The process of data triangulation is consolidated with the methodology of a qualitative character, in the sense that selected higher education professors from several áreas of knowledge were selected from a Community Higher Education Institution of the Southern Region of Brazil to collect their perceptions about of the formation of the global citizen. For that, the questionnaire and two focus groups, both with faculty members, were used as research instruments. In the results of the research, some possible propositions to promote Unesco recommendations for the development of ECG are highlighted, taking as a starting point the view of the teachers researched about this new role in the university. In this sense, the results of this analysis point out: the need of education to return to the learning paradigm; the importance of the shared responsibility of the different leve ls and actors of higher education, as well as institutional investment in internationalization processes, for the formation of a global citizen.
