The program is designed to enable young adults who are 18-25 years old to have short-term experiences living and learning along side people whose lives are shaped by justice work. The program provides opportunities for cross-cultural exposure, learning, and service. Through this program, a space is created for individuals who are willing to make short-term commitments to mission and who desire to explore the links between faith and justice. A NEW CONCEPT OF MISSION * Global Justice Volunteers seeks to provide young adults exposure to and experience with communities who are powerfully transforming the world in which we live. Global Justice Volunteers is based upon a concept in which Christian mission is understood as a challenge to amplify the human cries in situations where the world is profit-centered, not people-centered. In other words, it takes place where people raise awareness of the issues, mobilize collective efforts, and address the root causes of injustices; in order that all of God's children may live in peace, reconciliation, and harmony with God and one another. Global Justice Volunteers is about challenging the false gods of our times: Egocentrism, Exploitation of the Earth, Materialism, Race, Class, Gender Privilege, Militarism, Media's Sale of News as Commodity, Exploitive Economy
