Return to topThe expected intermediate outcomes for this project include: (i) increased awareness among female and male Canadian youth of the equal possibility of working internationally; (ii) enhanced equal employability of female and male International Youth Internship Program (IYIP) interns in Canada and in the field of international development; (iii) improved capacity of female and male IYIP interns to contribute to international development in a gender-sensitive way.
Results achieved as of the end of the project (March 2014) include: (1) 20 internships were coordinated in eleven host countries: South Africa, Bangladesh, India, Cameroon, Saint Vincent and Granada, Ethiopia, Ghana, Tanzania, Botswana, Guyana and Zambia; (2) participating interns increased their understanding of international development; (3) thousands of Canadians (women and men) were reached, thanks to dissemination and awareness efforts; and (4) the capacity of the Coady International Institute’s fifteen local partners was enhanced because of the presence of young Canadians in their organizations.
