Public Engagement
Volunteering
We are always looking for new volunteers to help us out with various CNIS projects. Join our team today!
CNIS Membership
CNIS is always looking to expand its membership. Membership provides a constituency of promoters and supporters in Canada for our projects in Africa. These members receive newsletters, information and invites to CNIS events. They are also encouraged to take part in the CNIS Annual General Meeting.
