About Atlas Corps:

Atlas Corps is a new, international citizen sector organization that brings mid-career CSO leaders from developing countries to volunteer for one year at like minded U.S. CSO Host organizations. Our mission is to create a global partnership for development through an innovative, sustainable and scalable Fellowship program that demonstrates that the global south should not just be a destination for support, but a partner in tackling the world's most pressing social issues. While in the U.S. Fellows will learn best practices from the United States, share unique perspectives from abroad, and then return home to create avenues of cooperation and continued learning. Atlas Corps Fellows will address a wide range of issues related to the United Nations Millennium Development Goals including hunger, poverty, education, gender equity, health, the environment, and human rights. We invite you to visit our website to learn more about the program and read about our fantastic staff and Senior Advisory Board that includes such notables as Bill Drayton, the founder of Ashoka, and Senator Harris Wofford, one of the founding leaders of the Peace Corps - www.atlascorps.org
