United States Peace Corps’ Mission

The Peace Corps is an agency of the US Federal government devoted to world peace and friendship. Peace Corps Volunteers work with governments, schools, and entrepreneurs to address changing and complex needs in education, health and HIV/AIDS, business, information technology, agriculture, and the environment. Volunteers work and live within communities both large and small, and rural and urban.

Partnership Summary

The US Peace Corps and Cisco Systems have partnered on an individual country level to pair Peace Corps Volunteers with Academies in need of extra assistance. Peace Corps Volunteers work with each Academy to improve communication, include females in IT, assist with Academy management skills, and to initiate community outreach.
