2. Be articulate and confident in communicating with different people in English (90% of Acquaint volunteers agree that their English speaking and listening skills have improved by communicating with people from different countries)

3. Receive badges & certificates to showcase your intercultural communication skills to your network

Requirements:

2. Basic computer skills

3. Internet connection

4. Must be 15 years of age or older (if under 18, permission from a parent or guardian is required)

Volunteer Responsibilities:

1. Enter times that you are available every week in Acquaint’s platform (minimum 1 hour/week)

2. Get paired with another volunteer from around the world during your available time(s)

3. Connect for a 45-60 minutes session through the platform guided by interactive icebreakers and prompts

4. Follow the safeguarding standards to prevent discrimination and protect privacy during the session

As a multicultural networking platform, Acquaint believes that cultural exchange should start at the grassroots level and that human connection is the key to working together across divisions. “Acquainters” provide critical service to the world by breaking down cultural barriers and building understanding that prevents future conflicts and enables opportunities.
