Volunteer

Join CASIEF today!

Many of CASIEF’s education programs are driven and sustained by dedicated volunteers. We rely on anesthesiology staff and residents who are passionate about global health and education to contribute their time and expertise to our programs. Volunteers have the opportunity to work closely with our partners to support various in-country education initiatives.

Given the evolving COVID situation, volunteer opportunities are constantly changing. If you are a staff or resident interested in volunteering, please email info@casief.ca.

We also have an expanding resident subcommittee that focuses on fundraising and supporting virtual education programs with our partner countries. If you are a resident interested in joining, please email Jenny Hoang-Nguyen at jehoang@toh.ca.

Hear from our volunteers

"I gained a lot of comfort and experience giving and preparing teaching sessions (especially changing topics and content last minute due to requests). I also felt it was valuable to see how much could be done with limited equipment which forced me to think more creatively about case management. Working with faculty from other training systems (ex. Australia, UK) also helped to broaden my perspective and see different approaches to learning, teaching and practicing medicine."

Dr. Emma Harris

"We need to recognize that the Canadians are learning as much if not more than we are teaching. The relationship is very much bilateral. Canadians have specific expertise to share and the local partners are very familiar with the unique disease presentations that are uncommon to us."

Dr. Jason McVicar
