Alumni Testimonials
Andrii Hrynko, 2024/2025 Intern
“It is an honor to have served as a representative of the Ukrainian Canadian Community in the Heart of Canada’s Democracy,” Andrii stated. “The experiences I have gained over the past 10 months—along with the deepened sense of responsibility to our community that this internship has instilled in me—are difficult to overstate. I thank all supporters of this program for the opportunity that will open many doors for me – doors through which I am ready to walk.”
message from the program director
Ihor Michalchyshyn
Since 2017 the PIP has been working to provide young and talented Ukrainian Canadians with an opportunity for first-hand education and training on Parliament Hill. Every year we sort through a large number of applications and interviews to select just one outstanding graduate for this opportunity. We are very proud of each of our alumni, and I encourage you to visit the relevant page to read the full list and where they are now.
Every supporter counts
We are grateful to all the organizational and individual donors who have since the beginning shared our vision for the
Parliamentary Internship and ensured that we have the resources necessary to offer this important program.
