Bharat Mathoo and Peter Jailall are Guyanese-Canadians who have gone back to Guyana to share their skills as educators through the Canada-Guyana Teacher Education Project (CGTEP). CUSO-VSO has partnered with CGTEP as part of the Diaspora Volunteering Program. CUSO-VSO helps link North American diaspora communities to their countries of birth or heritage through strategic volunteer placements and learning exchanges.
Volunteer for a better world! Join CUSO-VSO, share skills and volunteer in 43 countries in Africa, Asia, the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean. Volunteer, donate, share skills.

I'm a Public Engagement Officer with Cuso International based out of Toronto, ON. I joined Cuso International after five years working with NGO coalitions in Atlantic Canada and Ontario. Through my own work overseas in Ghana and Nigeria I've experienced first-hand how transformational international volunteerism can be.
