Global Cultural Networker

Save to Favorites

Organization Description

Acquaint is a nonprofit peacebuilding organization that works to heal divisions and prevent conflict. Enthusiastic volunteers from 45+ countries connect on our website for one-on-one conversations to share culture and perspectives.

Role Description

Cultural Networking is a remote volunteer opportunity based on each volunteer’s schedule. Each week, you will enter available days and times on the Acquaint website. Based on your availability, you will be paired with a fellow volunteer for at least one session per week. Sessions last an average of 45 minutes, and the goal is to ask questions, learn about the other person, and build our intercultural communication skills. A series of virtual icebreakers help move the conversation along.

Once you apply, you will receive an email with Acquaint's volunteer handbook and a short open-book quiz to complete. Once you've submitted it, an Acquaint team member will be in touch with you to invite you to an onboarding session.
