International Youth Internship Program (IYIP)
I am pleased to share this notice from ACIC about their internship program for Canadian youth 18-30. Reading the success stories shared by previous interns brings back fond memories of my time as a CUSO volunteer in West Africa many moons ago, and of the wonderful work done by Australian volunteers on our ILO project in Bangladesh, and of UN volunteers on our UNESCO project in Malawi.
Our International Youth Interns have officially wrapped up their placements and recently came together in Ontario for re-integration training. Over the past months, interns based in Fiji, Guatemala, Vietnam, Indonesia, Ghana, Tanzania, Grenada, Gambia, and virtually from Canada have been learning, building skills, and contributing to meaningful work with partner organizations.
We’re incredibly proud of everything this cohort has accomplished and the care, curiosity, and commitment they brought to their placements. Congratulations to all of our interns on finishing their placements, we’re excited to see what they do next as they head home for the holidays.
Applications for Cohort 4 of the IYIP program will open on February 1, 2026. Visit our website here for more information.
I hope you find time to check out ACIC and their international internship opportunities.
