Eh Team Canada Updates!

Hey JB Canada, 

For the next week, until NBM and NJBM begin on November 8th, we are going to be posting some updates from the people who were on the Eh Team this year, so you can see how their terms have gone and what they enjoyed most!

To start us off, we've got Amy Ayer, the most lovely Jr NJR ever :)

Q: What's your position on the Eh Team?
A: My position is NJR, this means that I am a representative of Canada's Junior Branch to both CISV Canada, and CISV International. 

Q: What's your favourite part of the job?A: I love my job! The best part is knowing that what I do matters, and is important. I get to work with the most amazing people, and I love learning about the structures, policies, and procedures behind this organization that I love. 

Q: What's the best order at Timmies?
A: I really love getting an Icecap and a sandwich during at layover, or while using their wifi for a CISV Meeting 


Q: What about CISV do you like best, that has to do with your position?
A: I love all the amazing learning opportunities that CISV has to offer. Not only does CISV teach ideas about world peace and other cultures, but it gives youth opportunities to learn leadership skills and how to work in an organization. My position has taught me so many lessons of how to work with people, and how to work in a business. I have learned how to teach sessions, organize meetings, and how to think with an opinion that is different from my own. ie How to act and make decisions that I believe are for the good of a group, and not just what I believe. National Camp Coordinator, and LJR are other examples of the opportunities that CISV gives youth to be empowered in running the organization and making it better.

And here is Amy at IJBC this year in Salvador, Brazil
