Students for Development Program
Website: AUCC's Students for Development
Starting in 1997 CAPI has been pleased to be able to offer Students for Development (SFD) opportunities to students on campus. Funded through the Canadian International Development Agency and managed by the Association of Universities and Colleges in Canada (AUCC), the Students for Development Program (formerly Canada Corps) offers three to six month placements in the region for current UVic students.
CAPI has recently received three years of program funding for the Making Connections: Migration and Development in Asia project from 2011-2014.
