QS World Merit

QS

World Merit is a global charity working towards creating a more equal world. We believe that talent is distributed equally across the world but opportunity isn't. That is why we are working tirelessly to develop a global platform for passionate and collaborative youth that can access opportunity based on merit.

Team
QS World Merit uses the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a framework for raising awareness, energy and capacity of young people to take local actions that tackle the most pressing global issues of the 21st Century.
Imagine being part of a value driven global team, reaching milestones together and striving to create change and accessible international opportunity. If you aspire to be and join the best of your generation and you intend to move imagination to action, note this... we are QS World Merit and you belong here!

What we do at QS WorldMerit

We support global citizens contributing to achieving the SDGs through their work with communities, local and global, with life changing opportunities
How you can create an Impact

No action is too small! You could post about the SDG you are passionate about to your Instagram story to raise awareness, swap your disposable coffee cup for a reusable one or host a screening of a documentary of an issue you care about. Explore other activities organised by our community members to be inspired. You know your community best, not us. Find out what the biggest issues and needs are in your community. Use that information to set up your activity to contribute to the solution.

How you can unlock Opportunities

We believe that talent is distributed equally across the world but opportunity isn't. That is why we reward merit with life-changing opportunities. By volunteering and contributing towards issues that you care about, you earn the points that you can exchange for opportunities to help you grow as a global citizen and increase your impact locally and globally.

Our Core Values

QS World Merit’s Values & Principles are the pillars of our organisation and are set by the community. They form our guidelines and uphold our vision for running Councils, supporting our members, and ultimately conducting ourselves within QS World Merit. We strive to be as radically inclusive as possible. We are a community for everyone. We acknowledge that what excludes people is an inability to communicate in English and access to the internet. We are working hard to overcome this so we can truly be inclusive to all.
