Junior Team Canada Economic Missions are teams of young Canadians who travel to foreign markets and explore business opportunities on behalf of Canadian business and industry. Team members network with government, business and education leaders in order to gather key market intelligence. In addition, our team examines the global issues that developing countries are facing, and how Canada can play a lead role in making a difference.
At the end of the mission, participants produce market reports that are presented to their sponsors. These reports are also used by Canadian companies and organizations to help further identify opportunities in foreign markets.

Each year, young Canadians compete for a spot on the Junior Team Canada Mission. To be eligible, youth must attend one of the Global Leaders Centers across Canada.
