Nothing counts more in peace and development work than the people in the field – onsite.

But there's a way to leverage additional skills from anywhere in the world – online.

The UNV Online Volunteering service connects non-profit development organizations with volunteers who provide support through the Internet.

Anyone can be an online volunteer via the UNV Online Volunteering service. All you need is a computer, an Internet connection and skills to offer.

There are no costs involved. Online volunteers cooperate across the world, without ever leaving their own homes.

Many non-governmental organizations (NGOs), governments and United Nations organizations are using the service. They provide descriptions of their volunteer opportunities explaining what they need from online volunteers. These opportunities are published on the service’s website.

Interested individuals identify opportunities that match their interests, expertise and skills, and submit their applications, through the website, directly to the organizations, which select the volunteers they would like to engage in their activities.
