WUSC and CECI jointly run Canada's largest volunteer cooperation program, Uniterra. We are not a placement agency for people wishing to volunteer abroad. We recruit volunteer professionals who can significantly contribute to the issues on which we are working, through strengthening the capacity of our local partners in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Volunteers do not deliver services themselves -- they do not teach in schools or paint orphanages or distribute clothing. They coach, advise, train, input, consult, plan, guide, connect and accompany local colleagues in well-defined placements that build the capacities of local partners -- so that those local partners are better able to perform their roles within their community or better provide services to their clientele.
