Employment Opportunities

Cuso International is a civil society development
organization that works through volunteers. We send volunteers
abroad to work on collaborative development projects in Africa,
Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. We are one of North America's
largest international development non-profits that works through
volunteers. Cuso International places people of all ages who have
the hands-on know-how and perspectives needed to work with organizations
working to overcome poverty. The causes of disadvantage are complicated,
and volunteering is not a panacea to poverty - but we think it
is part of the solution. It helps build the 'social infrastructure'
critical to any nation's future.
