Quick answers to common questions about our organization and programs.
We welcome Brown students from all academic backgrounds! You can join our team in various roles including brigade volunteers, program coordinators, fundraising team members, or communications support. Contact us to learn about current opportunities and our application process.
Not at all! While we welcome students with healthcare backgrounds, our brigades need volunteers with diverse skills. We provide comprehensive training for all volunteers, and many roles involve community education, logistics, translation, and administrative support rather than direct medical care.
We work through Global Brigades' established partnerships with communities that have specifically requested healthcare support. These partnerships are long-term relationships built on community needs assessments and ongoing collaboration to ensure our interventions are wanted and sustainable.
Brigade costs typically include travel, accommodation, meals, and program materials. We work hard to fundraise and keep individual costs manageable. Financial assistance may be available for students with demonstrated need. Contact us for specific cost information for upcoming brigades.
We are always interested in partnerships that align with our mission of sustainable global health. This could include sponsorship opportunities, supply donations, professional mentorship, or collaborative programs. Reach out to discuss how we might work together.
