I had the great pleasure of working with the passionate and committed staff of ICGC for 3 months on the Haiti project. The work I completed for them was influential in my professional development and helped lead to my current full-time position. ICGC is an inspiring organization, whose mission is not only admirable and meaningful but is working toward change on a global scale. The leadership and staff at ICGC are tackling the biggest problems our international community faces, and does so through an inter-personal and technologically interconnected network of passionate individuals. This is a truly dedicated group of change-agents.

I interned with ICGC for about 5 months. They're working on having interns work remotely, which I did. ICGC caught my attention because they seem to do interesting international development work and present ways for interns to glean GIS experience and expertise. Unfortunately, most of the work they had me do was cleaning and entering data. There was only minimal GIS work, using free software like Quantum GIS. ICGC has plans to work with ESRI to get access to better GIS software, which may drastically improve internship opportunities in the future. With the territory of working remotely also come the issues of communication and sharing of files with colleagues, which was difficult, but I applaud ICGC for trying to find solutions to these problems. I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with ICGC and I don't want my low ratings to reflect badly upon them-- but I think it's important to be honest and identify places where improvement is needed.

I had the pleasure to do an internship with the Institute for Conscious Global Change for a semester last year. The people on the team were tremendously committed to the work of this organization. The mission of this organization was what initially attracted me to this organization and I believe with continuous dedication of the entire team, they will make the goals of visualizing problems in developing countries a reality. This will be an extremely powerful tool that could help decision makers.

The best asset of ICGC is that everybody that participate in the project is really committed with the work and the objectives of the NGO. In a world where so so little resources are used used in helping those that need the most, the Millenium Earth Project comes as a way to get the most out of those resources, as it not only cares for what are the needs, but also WHERE they are greater. This allows investments made in developing countries to surely have a positive impact. For the time that I volunteered there I really felt rewarded by doing a work that could improve the world we live in, and would have definitely kept working there if my schedule allowed me.

ICGC’s team of dedicated and forward thinking individuals recognize progression and growth comes from education and access to resources. With the Millennium Earth Project, ICGC aims to establish a fundamental resource to help others reach solutions and further development within their environments. A significant component of the project includes making the resource available to all actors at all levels. ICGC’s goal of “putting equality on the map” is why I enjoy working for them because I also believe that everyone should be provided with the same opportunities to create a bright and successful future.

As a board member, I am part of an extraordinary organization that aims to translate the goal of the organization into results. The Institute for Conscious Global Change (ICGC) is dedicated to providing a better and successful way of addressing the challenges of the Least Developed Countries through the use of its Millennium Earth Project and employment of GIS program. With my experience at the organization I have been privy to the hardwork, commitment and transparency of the ICGC, and I firmly believe that the work being done is needed to enable sustainable development in the developing world.

Working as a volunteer for Institute For Conscious Global Change (ICGC) is not my first experience. In the past I have worked as a volunteer for other non-profit organizations, but I have to say that ICGC is at the top when it comes to being quality conscious. The ICGC leadership really knows what they are doing and how they are going to achieve the intended goal. I am happy to be a part of the team that is, I am sure, going to make a difference for the coming generations. The Millennium Earth Project is a good example of making use of technology to make an impact and provide a platform for development.

I believe the work that the Institute For Conscious Global Change does is very important! The Millennium Earth Project is the only nonprofit organization, to my knowledge, that utilizes GIS technology to visually display all of the country specific issues for the least developed countries. Another great aspect that really attracted me to the work of this organization, is the Millennium Earth Project's all-encompassing approach towards helping ALL of the Least Developed Countries (LDCS), rather than focusing on a particular geographic region as most other NGO often do. I strongly believe that the Millennium Earth Project's work will allow for the Millennium Development Goals to be achieved by 2015.
