Peace Corps Merit Badges will always remain committed to the three simple goals of the Peace Corps mission promoting world peace and friendship...
Host Country Improvement "Helping the people of interested countries in meeting their need for trained men and women" Improving the quality of life of the people in our host countries includes providing resources, opportunities and encouragement to our local community members, especially our friends who create our badges and extras, while also respecting and honoring the uniqueness of each of our host countries Volunteer Happiness "Helping promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served" Improving the quality of life of Peace Corps Volunteers involves reflection, humor, fun and support as we share our stories and experiences with one another, ultimately helping each of us serve as better Volunteers and friends in our local host communities during our service Sharing Experiences "Helping promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans" Achieving the third goal of Peace Corps involves sharing our service experiences with our family, friends, and our fellow American citizens. These merit badges provide not only a fun starting point but also a tangible reminder of our complex and incredible Peace Corps service |
