Center of Excellence for International Corporate Volunteerism

The CEICV enables companies to start and expand International Corporate Volunteer (ICV) programs and direct skills-based employee resources to USAID-beneficiary organizations, including social enterprises, NGOs, educational institutions, and government agencies in emerging markets.

In addition to linking ICV programs to a broader international development strategy, the CEICV will facilitate a more standardized methodology for tracking the development impact of these programs and will provide a resource for companies to share best practices with regards to ICV program design, delivery, and measurement.

The CEICV has four primary goals:

  • To enable companies of all sizes to start and expand ICV programs in emerging markets
  • To enhance USAID’s sustainable development efforts by leveraging the skills and expertise of corporate “citizen-diplomats” to provide services to NGOs, social enterprises, and educational institutions
  • To track development impact and best practices for ICV programs worldwide
  • To act as a hub for public-private partnership and engagement between companies, USAID, and emerging market partners
