Introduction: Classical dimensions of citizenship (political, civil, and social), in the modern theoretical framework, in addition to the necessary dimensions aimed at the whole environment and human society, have shown a unique evolution in the field of citizenship and its education. Based on this and considering that people of our country do not know much about their citizenship rights and responsibilities and the observance of citizenship ethics is not at a good level, citizenship education and understanding its dimensions is a new necessity. The purpose was to compile a comprehensive package of citizenship education based on these new dimensions.Method: The research method was comparative theme analysis based on literature, research context of scientific texts in modern citizenship and its education, and sample included 56 scientific sources. Data were analyzed through thematic network analysis.Results: Findings showed that the components and structure of the comprehensive package of citizenship education include educational techniques focused on political, civil, social, sustainable development, environmental, digital, and media citizenship education. A comprehensive package of citizenship education was designed in twelve 90-minute sessions. The coefficient of expert agreement was 0.93, which shows the adequacy of this package. In this way, a comprehensive package in the field of citizenship was added to Iran's practical and educational knowledge.Conclusion: The application of a comprehensive package of citizenship education in universities, as well as educational, and cultural centers, will help the development of citizenship attitudes and behaviors of people in the society and will reduce inappropriate behaviors and some of the current problems of the society.
