Global Exchange In Leadership Initiatives (GEILI) is a global platform to provide volunteer opportunities for aspiring leaders all around the world. GEILI was established by an HKU graduate and a young social entrepreneur, Mr. Clive Ka-lun LEE after a special trip in India. In Nov 2009, He was invited to be the the only Chinese trainer to train 300 young leaders from 96 countries at the Oxfam International Youth Partners in New Delhi, India. His expertise is on NGO and social enterprise issues.
The program was very inspiring because of great diversities in culturesand discussion topics. He was deeply impressed by the participants who have great visions despite the fact that they have suffered a lot from both local and global problems. Thus, he has a vision to support global youth leaders with the same vision and passion. After he came back to Hong Kong, he established GEILI to empower young people and foster global exchange in culture and volunteerism through an alliance of student organizations around the world.
GEILI cherish the contributions of every individual and organization member who can provide its local resources to support the development of the alliance.
GEILI works closely with a number of organizational partners to develop a variety of projects and provide opportunities for our members to gain international exposures in cultural, educational, and professional advancement.
We provide exchange, internship and service opportunities for youth across the globe with a rich content of local cultures. To support the development of our member organization, we provide training programs, financial supports and global networks for youth leaders who would like to establish NGOs or Social Enterprises.
