Leadership
The leaders of today
Leaders are carefully selected applicants who must demonstrate a strong interest in the goals and philosophies of CISV, a genuine interest in working with youth, and demonstrate the maturity and experience to handle the responsibilities assigned to them.
Leaders facilitate the preparation of the youth delegates and are required to meet many times with the children that they will be traveling with prior to attending a Village, Summer Camp or participating in an Interchange. This is in order to ensure that the group knows one another well and has established suitable communications with one another.
In addition to preparations with the child delegates and their families, CISV provides comprehensive orientation and training for all leaders. CISV Canada provides leadership training at both the local chapter and national levels. CISV Canada has one of the most comprehensive leadership training programs world wide. Training focuses on preparing leaders for their roles and responsibilities as leaders for youth in an international setting. In addition, training involves detailed orientation to the goals and philosophies of CISV, administrative and legal requirements of adult leaders, cultural sensitivity, and issues of risk management and conflict management.
