Access to the world's opportunities and to each other!   

About ​Global Natives

We are an international platform for the family-to-family exchange ​of languages, knowledge and opportunities. Together, we raise a new generation of global citizens.

In March 2009 our community was founded for curious young people from all walks of life, keen to discover the world and their options in it.

It gives them the freedom to do that within a global network of like-minded families' homes, guidance and shelter. It gives them a famillage!

But the idea goes further than making a new kind of global citizenship feasible and affordable: 
​We match the wishes, interests and offers of both kids and parents, so that international connec-tivity serves all generations equally well.​​​

Global partnerships, family-2-family 

Your fellow members in the Global Natives Club are parents of children in the same age group as your own.
They have a genuine interest in an exchange with your family, to use the holidays to get to know each other better and to give mutual support, both on- and offline, in learning each other's language. 

Your daily dose of ingenuity!

There is an amazing range of criteria to find common ground for both kids and parents - from cultural or scientific interests to sport and the arts, from organisations you care about to the music you love, from exceptional talents to special needs. You'll be glad to find families who'll be just as happy that they've come across yours!

​

We are mentors of each other’s children.

The Global Natives Club has room for urban spirits and rural souls, for the mountains and the seven seas, for lovers of  the great outdoors and for digital natives, ​for agnostics and believers, for the arts and for science.

See the Case Studies for ideas & options!
​

Our families come from all walks
​of life. ​And they meet here.

Our partnerships let kids from the big cities visit the countryside and vice versa, they take them from the seaside to the mountains and back; we match lawyers
with organic farmers and managers with artists, learn
new skills and convert acquired knowledge into hands-
​on-experiences!
​

We are kindred spirits.

2009 - 2019: For ten years, we focused on family-to-family partnerships. 
Then came Fridays for Future and it became clear: We have a lot to offer and a responsibility to contribute wisely.
It was the beginning of Global Natives for Future and the start for "bolder bond" mentoring.
2020: When the virus struck, the entire community was ready to make sure that no kid needed to feel lonely or helpless.
Our platform opened up to more focused networking: Alliances for the post-pandemic era.
