The public square is a meeting place for citizen engagement. Local communities and explorers can submit their own projects, which will be evaluated according to their alignment with our values and mission. What’s more, volunteers wishing to donate their time, energy and knowledge can also apply for projects that interest them. In this way, the public square brings initiatives to life, building bridges between projects and individuals who share Village Monde’s values. It’s also a simple and accessible financing tool for raising funds for one’s project, or contributing directly to Village Monde’s mission.
In order to ensure the evaluation and follow-up of projects put forward on the Public Square, 4% of the funds raised will be donated to Village Monde.
Before submitting your project, it is important to read the eligibility and evaluation criteria of the public square.
Here you’ll find all the projects run by the organizations and individuals we support. They need your support!
