  • What Is the UNICEF Campus Initiative?
    CAMPUS INITIATIVE MEMBERSHIP HANDBOOK Dear Campus Initiative Club Member, Thank you for your interest in global child survival. UNICEF has helped save more children’s lives than any other humanitarian organization on Earth and is the organization best equipped to help children. But still, every day 18,000 children die from treatable and preventable causes. UNICEF believes that number should be ZERO. And we know that — with your assistance — we can make this unacceptable situation history. You can help us get to zero preventable deaths by joining your school’s UNICEF Campus Initiative Club and the thousands of college students around the country who are educating, advocating and fundraising on behalf of UNICEF. As a member of your UNICEF Campus Initiative chapter, you have the opportunity to work in your community and on your campus for our common goals. This is an important and vital responsibility! Our hope is that this handbook, the Action Center and the leaders of your club will serve as valuable guides. Becoming part of this movement is exciting and rewarding, but we know it isn’t always easy. It is important for you to educate yourself and stay motivated about reaching our goal of zero preventable child deaths. Learn about our requirements and policies and engage in all your chapter’s events. Stay involved and participate in training to become a leader who helps us continue to grow and sustain our commitment toward zero. We have an ever-expanding list of schools and members committed to this work. We’re in awe of their accomplishments.

  • Post Baccalaureate Opportunities
    National Opportunities Americorps http://www.nationalservice.gov/programs/americorps. AmeriCorps is a domestic service organization that places corps members in community service positions all around the country. Corps members focus on a specific issue such as education, public safety, health or the environment, and they work on bettering this issue within the community they are serving. Corps members serve in this position for ten months to one year. All Stars Project http://www.allstars.org/fellowship The Activists for Social Development Fellowship is a competitive ten-week program designed to challenge ten recent college graduates (or those graduating in the spring) to be self-starters and make a difference by providing high-level training in development, fundraising, and youth organizing at a major national nonprofit organization with an outside-the-box approach. Beacon Education Network http://beaconed.org/ Unlike Teach for America, BEN Corps members are not expected to teach standards-based classes, but instead support core academic efforts while designing curriculum for a class of choice. Currently the Ceiba College Preparatory School where BEN Corps teachers will work is in Santa Cruz, California where the residences are typically located. Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellowship http://www.hungercenter.org/fellowships/emerson/ The Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellowship is an eleven month program that is divided into two phases. The first phase focuses on service, and places fellows in community organizations across the country that are battling hunger. For the second phase of the fellowship, fellows move to Washington DC, where they work on policy with national organizations to combat hunger and poverty-related issues.

  • The Peace Corps in a Turbulent World
    Brookings Institution Governance Studies Program Working Paper October 27, 2003 The Peace Corps in a Turbulent World The Peace Corps was born in a different world, the Cold War world. It was created to win hearts and minds in the non-aligned developing countries, but its biggest impact may have been at home in America. Nation building was the top priority for the Peace Corps when the first volunteers arrived in Ghana in August 1961. In retrospect, the complexities of nation building were grossly underestimated. The impact of the Peace Corps on economic growth in developing countries over the past 40 years has been too small to measure partly because of these complexities, but mostly because of the small scale of its operations. After the first wave of pioneers, however, individual volunteers have attached greater importance to the second and third goals of the Peace Corps: promoting better understanding of Americans by people in culturally distant countries, and promoting better understanding of these people in the cities and towns of America. While it is impossible to quantify the increase in mutual understanding attributable to the Peace Corps since 1961, the personal relationships established and the insights gained are widely acknowledged both at home and abroad. The zeal of the early 1960s was followed by a decade of gradual decline in the size and ambitions of the Peace Corps, which came close to succumbing to Vietnam-era cynicism on university campuses and to partisan politics in Washington. The fall of the Iron Curtain at the end of the 1980s and the historic transition to market economies and democratic political systems among the countries of the former communist bloc led to a resurgence of interest in the Peace Corps among developing countries (especially in Latin America) as well as among young Americans.

  • CAMPUS INITIATIVE PROSPECTIVE HANDBOOK Welcome!
    CAMPUS INITIATIVE PROSPECTIVE HANDBOOK Welcome! Dear Campus Leader, Thank you for your interest in fighting for global child survival. UNICEF has helped save more children’s lives than any other humanitarian organization on Earth for one crucial reason: It is the organization best equipped to tackle the major child killers like pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria, measles, AIDS and malnutrition. No one does this work better than UNICEF. UNICEF is at the forefront of efforts to reduce child mortality worldwide. There has been substantial progress: the annual number of under-five deaths dropped from 12.4 million in 1990 to 8.1 million in 2009. But still, 18,000 children die each day from preventable causes. Our mission is to do whatever it takes to make that number ZERO by giving children the essentials for a safe and healthy childhood. We hope you will help us accomplish this mission by joining the ranks of college students around the country who are educating, advocating and fundraising on behalf of UNICEF. As a Campus Initiative Club, you will have the opportunity to work in your community and on your campus for our common goals. This is a big responsibility. As you decide whether the campus program is right for you and your group, this toolkit will serve as your guide. You may also use it to prepare your application and to prep your campus for the work ahead. Becoming part of this movement is exciting and rewarding, but we know it isn’t for everyone. So please review the requirements, guidance documents and responsibilities of leadership carefully to enable yourself to make the best decision.

Various scholars and practitioners theorize that cooperation between countries in the global South is uniquely beneficial because of shared cultural and historical ties, or similar development paths.
