Empowering Future Leaders Through Volunteer Opportunities

The Visioner Program is an initiative designed to engage high school students in the dynamic world of international business. Tailored for students in 10th and 11th grades, as well as those enrolled in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, the Visioner Program provides invaluable opportunities for participants to enhance their business knowledge, develop leadership skills, and foster social responsibility through community service and collaboration.

Through hands-on experience in real-world projects, students will benefit from networking opportunities with industry professionals and gain exposure to diverse cultural perspectives. This immersive experience not only prepares them for future careers but also empowers them to contribute positively to their communities, building a strong foundation for success in an increasingly globalized world.

In addition to the Visioner Program, we are thrilled to introduce a fourth program aimed at further enhancing the educational experience for our students. This new initiative will focus on expanding cultural exchange and networking opportunities, fostering deeper connections between participants and industry professionals.

Together, these programs will equip our young leaders with the tools and insights needed to thrive in a globalized economy while strengthening the ties between Canada and Peru.

Peruvian Canadian Institute Virtual Summit 2021

The “Virtual Summit 2021”, organized by the Peruvian Canadian Institute of the Huntington University, with the support of the Embassy of Peru in Canada, took place on May 20, 2021, with great success and the attendance of a large audience.

The Virtual Summit 2021, as part of the activities in the framework of the commemoration of the Bicentennial of Peru in Canada, has had special importance for serving as a foundation for a constructive and broad dialogue on matters of social relevance for both of the countries, such as education, inclusive development of our economies, and the value and importance of indigenous peoples.

In addition, three great achievements were obtained with the signing of an MoU between the Huntington University and the Peruvian universities: Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos – UNMSM, Universidad Nacional de Ingenieria – UNI, Universidad Nacional de San Agustín de Arequipa – UNSA; this will allow establishing channels of international cooperation, exchange of knowledge and joint innovation in favor of their communities.

The Summit featured panel discussions and keynote presentations focused on topics such as Education, Indigenous Relations and Economic Development.

The First-panel session – Education – was being hosted by Mary-Liz Warwick. Panel guests were The Hon. Senator Rosa Galvez, Full professor and Chair of the department of civil and water engineering at Universite Laval and Martin Vegas Torres, Lawyer and Masters in Education Coordinator of the Horizontes Rural Secondary Education Program at UNESCO Peru.

The Second-panel session – Indigenous Relations – keynote presenter was Tarcila Rivera Zea, one of the most recognized Indigenous activists in Peru and the world.

Tarcila Rivera is founder and president of CHIRAPAQ (Indigenous association made up of Andean and Amazonians), a former UNPFII (Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues) member and currently a member of the International Commission on the Futures of Education, continental coordinator ECMIA, and founder of FIMI (Network of Indigenous Women leaders from Asia, Africa, Americas, Pacífic, and the Arctic).

The final panel session – Economic Development – was hosted by Paola Torreblanca, Chief Operating Officer and Vice-President at Core Foundation. Panel guests are Miguel Inchauste, Former Minister of Energy and Mines (PERU), and Arturo Ruiz, President of the Peruvian-Canadian Chamber of Commerce.

Covid-19 – Peruvian intensivists are trained by the Royal College of Canada

They will develop clinical reasoning skills to recognize and manage medical emergencies in the face of the pandemic.

For four days, 25 intensive care physicians from all over the country participated in the course for professionals in emergency services and intensive care, dictated by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada – International in coordination with the National School of Public Health (ENSAP), reported the Ministry of Health (Minsa).

It is the F-ACES (Facilitation – Acute Critical Events Simulation), which will help improve and optimize the knowledge and clinical reasoning skills necessary to quickly recognize and manage medical emergencies, in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The participants were selected, according to a profile, by the ENSAP at the national level among specialists in internal medicine, intensive medicine, emergency and disaster medicine, infectious and tropical disease medicine, anesthesiology, bioengineering, neurology, and pulmonology.

Doctors provide services in the health establishments of the Minsa and EsSalud, as well as the Armed Forces; and they come from Huánuco, Piura, Ucayali, La Libertad, Tacna and Ayacucho.

It is planned that at the end of this training, the organizers will select three doctors to qualify as instructors of the course, the same one that is being internationally licensed by ENSAP, which will make it possible for more health professionals to be trained in Peru.

At the opening of the event, held via Zoom, from Ottawa were present Dr. Roberto Rodríguez Arnillas, Ambassador of Peru in Canada; and Dr. Craig Ceppetelli, Executive Director of the International Collaboration Office of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

From Lima, in addition to Deputy Minister Ostos Jara, participated Dr. Ralph Jansen, Canadian Ambassador to Peru; and Dr. Zarela Solís, general director of the Ministry of International Cooperation Office.
