As one of the largest Canadian development NGOs in Sri Lanka, we are active throughout the country with an emphasis on delivering vocational training in conflict and tsunami-affected areas as well as reducing poverty and social exclusion in plantation communities.

In Afghanistan, WUSC is using its vocational training expertise to help women widowed by decades-long conflict acquire employable skills and enter non-traditional jobs.

Through our Uniterra volunteer cooperation program, we are present in Nepal as well as Vietnam. Uniterra is a joint initiative of WUSC and the Centre for International Studies and Cooperation (CECI).
