About WorldTeach

WorldTeach was founded by a group of Harvard students in 1986 and is a non-profit organization.  It is affiliated with Harvard University's Center for International Development (CID), but is independent from both CID and the university as a whole.  WorldTeach currently runs 23 programs in 16 countries. WorldTeach partners with governments and other organizations in developing countries to provide volunteer teachers to meet local educational needs, and to promote responsible global citizenship.
