Brief Description:

YCI’s HerStart Innovate the Future program aims to provide 10,000 women and local
partner organizations in Ghana, Tanzania and Uganda with access to social
entrepreneurship training, resources and networks to successfully launch or grow their
businesses. To achieve this, the HerStart program leverages the passion and skills of
Canadian volunteers through the International Fellowship program.

HerStart Fellows complete 3-month placements that meaningfully contribute to the
goals of HerStart, while gaining hands-on professional international development
experience, expanding their impact-driven networks, and learning from subject matter
experts in critical global topics. International Fellows receive a holistic benefits
package including round-trip airfare, visas, health insurance, a monthly stipend and
much more.
