Through our local and global volunteer program, MoM can place you with a community who requests your particular expertise to help develop the skills of local people. Your service overseas or in Canada can assist to build the capacity of a local community and advance a sustainable future. Your own growth will be even greater.
Application and Preparation
We welcome application from singles, couples and families. The process encourages significant self-appraisal. This entails specifying your background and experience, completing a reflective questionnaire and participating in interviews that thoroughly investigate relevant issues. A commitment to a placement is not required or given, until most of the process is completed.
The preparation program will build on your credentials. Skills can be developed for individuals through the correspondence program, while the mutual growth of participants is inspired through focus workshops and our pre-departure Orientation Course.
It is a valuable program even for those who may decide not to leave home.
