CANADIAN YOUTH PAGE
http://www.dfait-maeci.gc.ca/english/culture/youth/
The Canadian Government has made youth issues a priority,
with access to government programs and services an important
part of the plan to provide opportunities for youth.
The Canadian Youth Page was developed in response
to the Minister of Foreign Affairs' call to provide
a one-stop virtual panorama of DFAIT information,
jobs and programs available for youth .
-------
Some of the programs described on the Page are:
* a $13.5 million Youth Internship Program, offering
800-plus jobs available for youth over the next two years;
* the International Youth Exchange Programs and International
Academic and Education Program, providing many opportunities
for youth to obtain international education and work experience;
* the Foreign Service Exam category, providing information
on how to join DFAIT;
* the youth element of the Canada's Year of Asia Pacific program;
and
* relevant links that list opportunities to participate
in activities and provide information on youth conferences
and events with an international flavour.
-------
The page includes feedback mechanisms in the form of
a comments button and a survey on international issues,
which youth are invited to complete.

PAGE INTERNET ' LES JEUNES AU CANADA '

Le gouvernement accorde un statut prioritaire � la question
des jeunes, un des �l�ments importants de la strat�gie
visant � leur assurer des d�bouch�s reposant sur l'acc�s
aux programmes et aux services gouvernementaux.
La page Internet intitul�e � Les jeunes au Canada � a �t�
cr��e en r�ponse � la demande du Ministre de mettre sur pied
un guichet unique qui permette d'offrir un panorama virtuel
de l'information concernant le MAECI ainsi que des emplois
et des programmes accessibles aux jeunes.
-------
Cette page offre des renseignements sur divers sujets :
* le programme des stages internationaux pour les jeunes,
d'une valeur de 13,5 millions de dollars et qui doit
offrir plus de 800 emplois aux jeunes au cours des deux
prochaines ann�es;
* le programme d'�change de jeunes travailleurs et le programme
de relations et de formation universitaires qui, � eux trois,
pourront fournir aux jeunes bon nombre d'occasions d'acqu�rir
une exp�rience d'�tudes et de travail � l'�tranger;
* l'examen du service ext�rieur, qui permet de comprendre
comment joindre les rangs du MAECI;
* l'Ann�e canadienne de l'Asie-Pacifique et son volet ax�
sur les jeunes; et
* d'autres sites offrant des occasions de prendre part �
des activit�s, et sur des conf�rences et �v�nements � caract�re
international pour les jeunes.
-------
Nous avons aussi pr�vu des m�canismes de r�troaction prenant

peuvent r�pondre sur les questions d'actualit� internationale.
