Nabuur's dream is to help "villages in developing countries get direct help from committed individuals elsewhere to solve their problems." Its mission is to provide an internet platform where Villages get effective and trusted assistance from online volunteers (or neighbours).
In fact, Nabuur.com connects: Neighbours, i.e., people that want to take action now for the benefit of people in developing countries, and Villages, i.e., people in need of knowledge, contacts, and new ideas to improve their lives.
Nabuur offers a platform where people from Villages in developing countries and Neighbours from all over the world meet, share and act together toward new solutions. The progress and results are all visible on the website.
Nabuur links you directly with people around the world who need your assistance now. All you need is a computer, a little free time, and the desire to make a difference.
People on Nabuur have in common that they are committed Global Citizens with a drive to do something to make a difference. Furthermore they are pioneers and not afraid to be confronted with cultural differences, distance and reality in developing countries.
151 villages from 25 countries and 12,006 neighbours have already registered on Nabuur.com.
