It is growing. Join us.

By Karen Morian

This year Servas International rebooted its environmental and climate work. Beginning with a webinar in January and continuing with sustainable travel and living suggestions (featured in Open Doors from June and July), and, most recently, well-received presentations at SICOGA, we have been building for the future.

To best represent our membership, we are soliciting your input. Please share your thoughts and ideas with us on the Servas Environment Survey.

As an officially recognized team within Servas International, we are building out our structure. This will include a leadership team and two Servas representatives from each of six continents. If you are interested in joining us, please send an email to servasenvironment@servas.org

If you do not want to be a representative but would like to help with the ongoing work of our Team, including Eco Camps and Schools, climate content creation for Peace and Youth Camps, joint projects with external partners, and collaborations with local projects, please reach out as well with some information on your interests and your background.

Also, don’t forget to offset your travel this year (at LEAST your flights) by contributing to the US Servas tree-planting drive. For your own edification you can use the Sustainable Travel International website to Calculate your Carbon Footprint.
