Have you ever been curious about entering the global development sector? Have you ever wanted to exchange your unique skill set for an opportunity to volunteer abroad? International volunteering provides you with an experience where you are able to directly contribute your skills to development. This experience is unlike any other, as you are placed right at the centre of local communities where you will be immersed in a new culture, while giving back in a meaningful way.
Are you interested in joining our global network of individuals passionate about making a positive difference in the world? Join us on June 6th from 12pm to 1pm EDT for a virtual information and Q&A session curated for Canadians and permanent residents to learn more about the importance of international volunteering and how you can get involved.
During the event, you will:
- Hear the firsthand accounts of international volunteering from a Canadian volunteer currently on assignment in Jordan
