An Alternative to UN Volunteers for Skilled Professionals
We are big fans of the United Nations(UN) Volunteer Program. In fact, many of our advisors were previous volunteers.
But just because you don't have at least 6 months doesn't mean you can't make a difference overseas. In fact, one of the leading barriers to progress is a "lack of access to talent", and by volunteering your skills you can make a measurable impact.
Our award-winning program is for proessionals who want to use their skills on vacations, sabbaticals, or gap years to make a real impact.
"Experteering is a new way to pool top talent for social good"
