The world has been facing a wide range of intellectual challenges to maintain global peace. Scholars and teachers have explored them in the past too.

This study presents review of literature on the importance of critical thinking for global peace. Finally, it proposes framework to foster the critical thinking abilities of students and some suggestions are made about the development of critical thinking skills.
