Global Citizen Corps - Mercy Corps

PROGRAM SUMMARY: Global Citizen Corps
With almost 30 years of experience working in the world’s toughest places, Mercy Corps believes that without a well informed and mobilized constituency in the developed world, there is a fundamental limit to the success we will have in pursuing our mission of alleviating suffering, poverty and oppression.

To that end, Mercy Corps has launched its Global Engagement initiative to radically alter the way people think about the world, and their role within it. This includes the opening of two museum-types high-tech Action Centers in NYC and Portland (OR) (www.actioncenter.org), and the management of the Global Citizen Corps (GCC) (www.globalcitizencorps.org) program which educate young people about global issues while building their leadership skills.

Through digital stories (video/photo) , structured youth-to-youth dialogues across continents, and leadership opportunities, young people discover peaceful ways to advocate for a better future and make a difference in their world community. To date, thousands of Arab and American youth have engaged in global citizenship education and community projects that transform the way they see their role in society.

Our web 2.0 portal www.globalcitizencorps.org aggregates educational and user-generated content into a youth-friendly platform that equips and inspires young leaders in Iraq, West-bank/Gaza, Lebanon, Jordan, USA, UK and for the first time this year, Pakistan and Indonesia.
