IGCDP OPPORTUNITYAIESEC UNIMET
PROUT is a new and comprehensive socioeconomic
theory intended to create opportunity for every human
being to fully develop and constructively express their
physical, mental and spiritual potentials. Current systems
of development are unable to provide this opportunity.
They cannot even ensure the peace, equity, sustainability,
basic necessities, and social unity required for basic
human existence. No amount of reform can change this, as
their limitations stem from their fundamental values.
The Local Chapter has 4 TN oppotunity with the PROUT Research Institute of Venezuela

4. Length of stay: While the length of commitment can vary, the longer a volunteer can stay,
the more effectively they can assist with our projects. Our staff invests time training and
orienting interns, and it takes time for interns to develop personal contacts and learn their way
around the city and country. So the longer you can commit to working with us, the more
inspired we are.
