About Me |
|
Global Exchange is a membership-based international human rights organization dedicated to promoting social, economic and environmental justice around the world. We envision a people centered globalization that values the rights of workers and the health of the planet; that prioritizes international collaboration as central to ensuring peace; and that aims to create a local, green economy designed to embrace the diversity of our communities. As an education and action resource center, we advance our vision by working to ensure our members and constituents are empowered locally and connected globally to create a just and sustainable world.

My Interests |
|
| Global Exchange takes a holistic approach to creating change. In a world where the economics of quantity fuels corporate power and political greed, the elite are reaping profits while working people and the planet are left to pay the price. In response to the global degradation caused by this system of elite globalization, we envision an alternative economics of quality centered upon protecting international human rights to ensure that the cost of globalization does not come at the expense of us all.
