Help the Aged (Canada) is currently recruiting eight international youth interns for Africa, Jamaica and the Commonwealth of Dominica.

This Youth Employment Strategy is jointly funded by Help the Aged (Canada) and the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), Youth Action Division. The program provides practical work experience in a developing country, enhancing the employability skills of the intern and at the same time, the young professional leaves behind a skill or knowledge that will benefit the local community. Position descriptions are carefully designed to meet the needs of the overseas partner and to provide a meaningful work experience for the intern.
