WorldwideUniversity.edu is the domain of a worldwide consortium university. To see how Vancouver University - from its very beginning - has been transnational in perspective and membership, click here. For a summary description of how VUW functions, click here.

Vancouver University Worldwide now has member colleges - and some 3820 students - in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australasia, and Europe. These are not branch-plants or franchises. The member colleges have equal status on the Board of the university's colleges society (a registered charity in Canada and the USA - donations large and small welcomed).

Vancouver University Worldwide is a globally-membered non-governmental organization. Occasionally it may have the same fundamental 'foot-hold' or 'head-office base-location' problems which can adversely affect any international NGO at times, as detailed in the Raymond Spencer Rodgers book, Facilitation Problems of International Associations, published by the Union of International Associations, Brussels.

As an Olympic venue, British Columbia should be actively seeking to attract global international non-governmental organizations - in such fields as sport, education, outdoor learning, international cooperation, etc - and enthusiastically retain Vancouver University Worldwide in such context. [There is already a Commonwealth intergovernmental organization headquartered in Vancouver - the Commonwealth of Learning.] Vancouver University seeks a campus for its Whistler College (Society). Tax-deductible donations (Canada and IRS) are welcomed.
