Développement international Desjardins (DID) – IYIP Internships 2015-2017

This project is part of the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) International Youth Internship Program (IYIP), funded by the Government of Canada's Youth Employment Strategy (YES). The IYIP contributes to the YES by providing a large spectrum of Canadian graduates with valuable international development work experience abroad, needed to launch successful careers. Développement international Desjardins’s (DID) initiative provides 22 interns with opportunities to work in five countries: Haiti, Panama, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. The internships are implemented in close collaboration with local partners, specifically community finance institutions, which play a major role in the social and economic development of their communities. The internships cover the following areas: development of financial services for small businesses, communications and marketing, accounting, human resources, gender equality and technologies, as well as assisting partners in diversifying, professionalizing and strengthening their skills, including their services in different sectors.
