Raleigh International is a youth-driven organization supporting a global movement of young people to take action.
We exist to ignite youth-led action that creates solutions to the world’s most urgent problems. But while young people demand change now, they do not always know how to take action.

Our Values
All organisations have their values, but Raleigh International really is an organisation that strives to recruit based on cultural fit and hire people who really embody, not just embrace, our values. Above all we are an organisation of motivated doers, so our values are action-orientated. Here are our values and some stories from employees as to how they live those values.

We believe our voices and actions are stronger together. It is the ideas and power of an inclusive movement that changes the world.
2. Act with integrity.
We respect the qualities of real leaders, and we strive to embody them in everything we do.
3. Commit to learning.
We understand the importance of learning for growth and inclusion. We must listen to and learn from each other to create real change for everyone, everywhere.
4. Find the courage.
We stand up for what we believe is right, even if this means stepping out of our comfort zones.
5. Never give up.
Changing the world can be hard, but we will not stop until we have achieved all we set out to.
