Corporate/Private sector volunteers
Under the UNV-managed Corporate/Private Sector programme (CPS), senior business leaders and retired executives provide managerial and technical advice to companies and industries in developing countries and emerging economies. They make a real impact in private sector development in a matter of weeks. Missions can last from one week to a maximum period of three months.

Volunteers serving on CPS missions are highly qualified in their field of expertise with solid professional experience. They bring a wide range of business and management skills in the areas of strategic planning, engineering, industrial design, product development, manufacturing, marketing, quality control and financial management as well as technical expertise for a variety of industries. They are motivated by a desire to help.

As a UNV volunteer, you offer your services on a voluntary basis. Your travel and living expenses are covered.
