We are a small non profit with big dreams. We have had success with our recent GCJ India 2017, built on the legacy of Nigeria 2005, Ghana 2006, Burundi 2007, and Liberia 2010. We are now working on Kashmir/India 2018, so timely in this era of rampant Islamaphobia. Join in Global Citizen Journey's mission to build the global neighborhood and bridges of peace with marginalized places such as Kashmir in India; the Niger Delta; Axim, Ghana; rural Pune, India; and Burundi. GCJ exists to inspire people to become engaged and enlightened global citizens acting from a sense of our interconnectedness and mutual responsibility. We engage in educational and cross-cultural activities to develop global awareness in individuals and communities, through international exchanges, training, dialogue and community programs. We work closely with local partners at a grassroots level to develop projects that foster peace, provide community service, and develop individual leadership.
Join our growing community of committed of dynamic volunteers and help us write grants to help fund our next community service project (vermiculture installation at Maher communities in India) as well as to support ongoing projects of our partners, plus educational and leadership programs.
We are dedicated to BEING the change - so we the way we work together is as important to us as the work we do. We invite and treasure the energy and passion of all who join us. We aspire to work in ways that help us each learn and grow, generating new ideas, choice-creating, and transformative - passion, joy, interconnectedness are guiding principles. Global Citizen Journey grow into a sustainable organization. We are currently planning journeys to India, and in the near future to a Mayan community in Guatemala. We welcome you to our learning community of global citizens!

Mission Statement
Our mission is to create a living network of ongoing cross-cultural exchange that builds understanding, global connectedness and world peace.
Description
Global Citizen Journey is a visionary and action oriented project that will bring vital energy, support and resources to communities in need --and provide a rich transformative experience for volunteers. The project has multiple purposes: citizen diplomacy, peacemaking, leadership building, environmental activism and service. Journeys bring a group of international participants to join with local participants for a three week residential experience, with half the time spent on the work project (such as planting trees) and the other half in circles and workshops to build relationships and develop skills of communication, compassionate listening and conflict resolution as well as cross-cultural and gender relations.
