The Global Action Atlas is a National Geographic website that "spotlights hundreds of local, cause-related projects from around the world to a large audience of concerned citizens, giving individuals opportunities to take action by donating, volunteering, advocating and sharing information." Projects and organizations are thoroughly vetted by the organization's donation processing partner, GlobalGiving, before being showcased. The Global Action Atlas site explains that process on its website:
National Geographic works closely with GlobalGiving to carry out a thorough due diligence process for every organization featured on the Atlas. The organizations behind every project on the Action Atlas must meet the following criteria:
Their work has significant positive social or environmental impact.
They have a track record for delivering on promises.
They are not listed in any terrorist databases.
Their projects are eligible for international philanthropic donations
We are pleased to have four projects featured on the Global Action Atlas. They are:
Hands-on WASH education for students and teachers in Northern Uganda
Help improve the lives and health of Bolivian school children
Hands-on WASH education for students and teachers in Zimbabwe
Help improve the lives of Peruvian school children through water education
Check them out, and please sign up to be a Project WET fan.
