6-8 Weeks Volunteering Opportunties
On September 25th 2015, 193 world leaders committed to 17 Sustainable Development Goals. In line with the SDGs, AIESEC initiated Youth For Global Goals (Y4GG) with the aim to activate the leadership potential of youth around the world.
This is what we mean by activating leadership through leadership. Through Global Volunteer, we engage and mobilise young volunteers to contribute to purposeful and cross-cultural projects across the global. These projects are designed to contribute to a respective SDG, such as quality education (SDG 4) or partnership for the goals (SDG 17).
Our on-campus local chapter volunteers are available to help facilitate the best volunteering experience for you. You can find out more information via ‘Contact’.
