All volunteers who interact directly with youth must complete a background check prior to participating in the Girls Save The World Global Youth Summit.
This process is required for all adult volunteers (18+) and typically takes a minimum of two weeks to complete. Volunteers are encouraged to submit their background check request as early as possible to ensure approval before the event.
Individuals who have not completed and cleared their background check by the deadline will be reassigned to non–youth-facing roles or may not be permitted to volunteer onsite.
A background check link will be sent via email for completion.
