About UWC
UWC makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future. To fulfill its mission, UWC has 18 schools and colleges worldwide, alongside 150 mostly volunteer-run national committees who select UWC students. Additionally, members of the UWC community run short summer programmes and locally-based initiatives. The UWC community consists of over 50,000 alumni, alongside current and former staff, donors, friends and partners.
UWC International is the umbrella organisation across the UWC movement and its executive arm, the UWC International Office, is based in London and in Berlin. UWC International unites stakeholders from across the UWC movement and engages closely with the UWC community. UWC International is working collaboratively with all UWC stakeholders to achieve the goals set by the “UWC Strategy: 2018 and Beyond”.
The UWC International Council
The UWC International Council (“Council”) is the broadest representative body of UWC International with up to 80 members representing different constituencies of the UWC movement as well as partners of UWC. The UWC Council plays a vital role in holding UWC International accountable and bringing the perspectives of the wider movement into UWC International’s governance.
The UWC Council elects the UWC International Board and discusses issues of strategic, developmental and philosophical significance and advises the Board on ethos, strategy and major issues of UWC International. Council members sit on a number of committees preparing decisions of the Board and of the Council and exercising authority within the UWC movement. In legal terms, members of both the Council and the Board are also the members of The United World Colleges (International) - the UK company and registered charity constituting UWC International. The Council usually meets in-person once a year (usually in October or November). On this occasion, Council members also interact with UWC International Board members and the UWC school/college community where the meeting takes place.
UWC International is seeking to fill a small number of vacancies on the UWC Council. The vacancies will have effect from January 2022. Appointments will be made for initial terms of three years and are renewable for up to two further terms.
Membership in the Council and Vacancy
The UWC Council includes Heads and Chairs of the UWC schools and colleges (except those serving on the UWC International Board), national committee representatives, as well as alumni and other members of the wider UWC community.
Volunteering in UWC’s governance structures
Individuals who become involved with UWC International do so for many different reasons and in a wide variety of ways. However, all share in common a belief in the aims and ideals of UWC and in particular the mission of making education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future.
Members of the Council who are not appointed ex-officio act in a volunteer capacity. They are part of a large group of individuals across the world supporting the UWC movement as volunteers, whether it be in one of the UWC national committees, on the board of UWC schools or colleges or within the UWC International governance structure.
UWC International is committed to ensuring diverse representation in its governance structures. It therefore in particular encourages nominations from candidates representing groups currently underrepresented in UWC International’s governance bodies. Candidates that do not have direct affiliation with the movement but feel they meet the requirements are welcome to apply. Council members are expected to attend the annual in-person meeting and support the work of UWC International throughout the year by serving in working groups, task forces or committees. Usually, UWC International is not in a position to cover the costs of Council members’ travel to and attendance at meetings. However, whether an applicant can cover their travel and other costs associated with participation in the Council meeting will not be a deciding factor in the selection process and Council members can expect cost reimbursement where this is necessary and appropriate.

-
Belief in UWC’s mission and willingness to engage with issues of relevance to the UWC movement.
-
Commitment to the work of UWC International in furthering UWC’s mission and values.
