Maybe you're watching the news or concerned about your own country. You want to do something, but don't work in sustainability. Our volunteers come a variety of backgrounds - business, engineering, international relations, psychology - and work together for one goal: shape a more sustainable future.
We understand that volunteers are dedicating their spare time to work with us. We want you to enjoy being part of the team. So team building, professional development, and social events are core to the volunteer experience.
Assembly members are essential for SDSN Youth to function on a global scale. You'll meet passionate young people from around the world. Join the team to amplify their work, help them accelerate their impact, one Saturday at a time.
We are always looking for volunteers. Check out the join our team page for current opportunities.
