International Volunteer program is a unique project that aims at promoting
volunteerism in many countries of the world, through daily co-operation
with staff of overseas organization, volunteers learn how others live and
view the world.
The program denotes to continue the involvement of foreign volunteer in
Nepal to share their specialized skills and technologies that will
assemble and enhance the capabilities of assisted communities for
sovereign progress. Conversely, the Program enables the Global Partnership
to extend assistance to other countries through the dispatch of skilled
Nepalese professionals for volunteer work abroad. Aside from sharing their
expertise, Global Partnership Volunteer also share their culture with
their host communities just as they learn from the culture of their host
countries.

their productive professional life to humanitarian work without regard for
monetary consideration. This commitment to serve in depressed communities
spells out the difference between Global Partnership Volunteer and other
personnel.
