What does the Global Citizen Corps do?
The Global Citizen Corps believes that Awareness + Action = Impact so we get informed about global poverty issues and learn how to take action. There are two ways to get involved: Global Citizen Corps Members use www.globalcitizencorps.org to learn more about the issues of hunger, poverty, conflict, education and climate change, exchange ideas with your peers around the globe, learn from field workers and anti-poverty experts, discover new ways to take action, and ultimately build a powerful movement for change. Global Citizen Corps Leaders join a year-long program that connects international youth leaders to organize Global Action Days and projects in their schools and communities around the issues of global health, hunger, concflict, climate change, and access to education. Using Mercy Corps’ tools, training, and resources, Leaders carry out these Global Action Days to educate and inspire their peers and communities to build a better world.
