How to Apply

To apply for this program, complete the application form and email it to agirard@wusc.ca (Alyssa Girard, Senior Program Officer), by Friday, March 21, 2025, at 4 p.m. PST.

The complete application package includes:

• TRU Leave for Change application form
• Your resume

If you do not see an assignment on the website that matches your skill-set, we strongly encourage you to apply anyways as new opportunities come up frequently. The listed assignments represent a small percentage of the skills and knowledge from which our local country partners could benefit. If you are not applying to a specific assignment, please ensure to state your main areas of interest and skill set.

On the application form, you are asked to provide three mandates you are most interested in. If there is no mandate on the website that corresponds to your expertise, please contact TRU World to discuss what professional skills/expertise you could contribute through a Leave for Change experience. We may still be able to match your expertise to projects that are not listed on the program website.
