Edinburgh Global Partnerships SCIO, or EGP, is a student-run charity based at the University of Edinburgh that assists in community-led development projects overseas. EGP's four main aims are: * To support community led initiatives, working together with people to help them achieve their long-term goals for development. * To allow volunteers to develop new skills and a wider perspective on the world we live in. * To promote international understanding through projects that are focussed on building friendship, trust and respect between EGP volunteers and people across the world. * To establish partnerships with local organisations to encourage volunteers to participate in volunteering in and around Edinburgh.
