Project Overseas is a program sponsored by the Canadian Teachers’ Federation and its Members. The purpose of the program is to provide professional assistance to fellow teachers in developing countries.

Project Overseas is held during the months of July and August.

PO began in 1962 with one program in Nigeria. Current projects will provide assistance to teacher organizations in Africa, Asia and the Caribbean. Approximately fifty volunteers will be sent to eleven countries. (Source: Project Overseas Participants' Handbook, 2009)
