Borderless World Volunteers is a registered Canadian charity with the mandate of empowering youth for leadership in global development. Founded in 2003, Borderless strives to guide undergraduate university students to lead development projects across the globe while contributing to the wellness of their own local communities.
What We Do
Borderless World Volunteers was founded to provide a link between university students and local development organizations in developing countries.
During the academic year, students identify organizations in developing countries who are in need of assistance and capacity building. Throughout the academic year, students work closely with the organization to understand their issues and co-develop solutions. In the summer, the students travel to work with the organization to implement the project. An important aspect of this field work is ensuring that the skills learned and programs implemented are successfully transferred to the organization to ensure its long term sustainability. By enabling students to have applied learning, we endeavour to build the next generation of leaders in global development.
Guiding Principles
--- Provide an enabling environment for undergraduate students to identify and solve priority global development issues through collaboration, planning, field implementation and project evaluation
---Ensure that student volunteers work alongside local non-profits to build the capacity of those organizations to carry out their mission ensuring long-term sustainability and skills transfer
---Develop the next generation of leaders in global development
