Join us for stimulating sessions with video, slides and conversation… when you will learn about Global Citizen Journey, a unique Seattle-based nonprofit. We will share stories from our first journey to the Niger Delta in 2005 when we brought 19 Puget Sound residents with 21 Nigerians from all around Nigeria, to live in a small village where we completed the first library in this oil rich, environmentally devastated region. And stories from our second Journey to the poor coastal town of Axim, Ghana, where 15 US joined 14 Ghanaians in circle work, Town Hall meetings, educational/health outreach and building of an orphanage and community center. You’ll come away with a deeper understanding of the complexities or our world, and the challenges and opportunities for each of us to make a difference.

…And we will invite you to join us on our upcoming delegation to Burundi summer 2009. Find out how you can get involved as a delegate, volunteer, sponsor or supporter.

These orientation sessions precede our Steering Team meetings each month. Feel free to stay on for the Steering Team meeting (7 to 9:15) after your orientation to gain a fuller sense of who we are and how we work together.
