About IVEP"It is a peace program that works, not in a big sweep, but one small ripple at a time, each ripple enlarging with every expanding circle"
IVEP participants from abroad spend a year living in the United States or Canada. Beginning with orientation, participants spend the year (early August until the following July) working in placements that offer training that reflects the participants' professional interest and experience. Hosts are found in the community. The program is partly self-financing, with some MCC subsidy, and does not generate money for the participant, host, or sponsor. Besides the orientation conference at the beginning of the term, there is also a mid-year conference for participants to get to know each other. The year ends with a conference in Ontario before people return home.
Participants are selected by mid-January, so the application process must begin up to 6 months before this deadline, depending on the IVEP committee in your country. |
