Community Guidelines (Legacy Honor Code)

As a close-knit team, we work to strengthen the Global Youth Village community and to realize the uniqueness of each individual. Our guidelines are few, but they are necessary to reach our goals.

The Legacy Honor Code was written jointly by past participants and staff, and provides the guidelines by which we can create a model cooperative community and broaden the experience of every member of our “global village.” Each participant and staff is expected to:

• Be open to new ideas and willing to listen
• Respect other people’s point of view, cultural difference and music
• Participate fully in all activities
• Resolve conflict through communication
• Engage in non-exclusive, open relationships which avoid cliques and pairs
• Accept a diet free of meat and sugar for a period of time
• Abstain from tobacco, alcohol & illegal drugs

Please do not apply if you feel you cannot abide by this code. More details about staff policies will be provided to those selected for interviews.
