L’Entraide universitaire mondiale du Canada (EUMC) est un organisme canadien sans but lucratif qui œuvre à créer un monde meilleur pour tous les jeunes. Nous rassemblons un réseau diversifié d'étudiants, de bénévoles, d'écoles, de gouvernements et d'entreprises qui partagent cette vision. Ensemble, nous développons des solutions en matière d'éducation, d'opportunités économiques et d'autonomisation pour surmonter les inégalités et l'exclusion des jeunes du monde entier, en particulier des jeunes femmes et des jeunes réfugiés . L'USC opère actuellement dans 28 pays d'Afrique, d'Asie, du Moyen-Orient, d'Amérique latine et des Caraïbes, ainsi qu'au Canada, avec un budget annuel d'environ 65 millions de dollars canadiens. Notre équipe internationale compte plus de 350 collaborateurs qui mettent en œuvre un portefeuille diversifié de projets de développement en collaboration avec de nombreux donateurs multilatéraux et bilatéraux, ainsi que des fondations philanthropiques.

Afin de mener à bien efficacement son portefeuille de projets en pleine croissance, sa stratégie organisationnelle et ses initiatives de développement commercial, WUSC cherche à établir une liste préqualifiée (liste de consultants expérimentés).
