Students for Development
2008 internships

In 2008, the Students for Development program funded 145 student internships, each focused on a particular aspect of good governance in developing countries. Participating students worked alongside their Southern partners to find innovative solutions to pressing governance challenges. The brochure and the postcards below highlight some of the success stories and achievements of the 2008 program.

Brochure The testimonials in this brochure show how the program successfully engages young Canadians to help bring about good governance. Students who participate in this program form a cadre of future leaders with the interest and experience in governance to carry forward Canada's work in the world.
