Global Xchange needs you!
Global Xchange is a six-month programme which gives young people from different countries a unique opportunity to work together, to develop and share valuable skills and to make a practical contribution where it is needed in local communities. The exchanges were designed to be fully reciprocal, involving young people from the developed and developing world in equal numbers, and working on community projects in both areas. Volunteers live and work together for three months in the UK and three months in the partner country working on community projects, these volunteer placements will be structured so that they are able to make a positive and practical contribution to the community they are living in.
"I wouldn't say I completely changed as a result of Global Xchange - it rather gave me the opportunity to develop what I feel was already there. It's been the perfect stepping stone in my future career, since I now have a much better idea of what I want to do and what I want to achieve in life." Rosanna Wynn Williams GX volunteer 2007/8
Global Xchange is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable work experience, make new friends and learn about new cultures. And if you aren't already convinced... Global Xchange don't ask volunteers to pay for the experience, they cover all direct costs and help you fundraise towards the cost. Brilliant!
The partner countries for the next exchange will be Pakistan , Kazakhstan, Bahrain, Egypt, Syria, Ghana, Ethiopia, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Mongolia
