Knowing the reality

GCDP

projects are volunteering projects

in smaller NGOs, nonprofits where every
member of the staff needs to be flexible
and participatory. Although the intern will
likely not gain hard skills from their
volunteering experience, they will gain
invaluable soft skills such as interpersonal
communication from working in a diverse
and high-impact environment.
