About Us
Welcome Message from Carol Jenkins, CEO
World Learning believes that the best hope for peace, justice, and sustainability lies in bringing people together. Through cultural immersion, experiential learning, and information sharing, our programs equip others to collaboratively address the most pressing issues of our time.
Throughout my years at World Learning, I have had the fortunate opportunity to meet with many of our participants, partners, and alumni—a global network of learners. Our programs help them understand other cultures, master new skills, and cultivate networks. Our teaching and training methodologies empower them to find locally relevant, sustainable, and implementable solutions. Our approaches emphasize flexibility and adaptability that help them tackle real-world problems. They, in turn, make extraordinary changes in their lives and communities.
Please join us—and those we work with and serve around the world—in our pursuit to create a brighter and better future for all.

USAID Training For Pakistan
DURATION: 10/01/2018 - 09/30/2023
FUNDER: USAID
PARTNER: The Kaizen Company
CONTACT: [email protected]
Program Description
The USAID Training for Pakistan Project was a five-year, $20 million project that provided training and capacity-building services to address issues such as violent extremism, economic growth, and democracy and governance.
After leading the predecessor to this project—the five-year, $33 million Training for Pakistan II, which ended in May 2018, World Learning was pleased to continue that work, this time in partnership with the U.S. small business The Kaizen Company, which led the USAID Training for Pakistan Project.
The project provided needs assessment services and capacity-building programming to address gaps in skills and knowledge across USAID’s portfolio in Pakistan. It utilized tools such as technical training, international exchanges, internship programs, conferences, small grants, and a range of alumni support. World Learning’s primary role was to design and arrange training and related activities that took place in the U.S. or elsewhere outside of Pakistan.
Program Goals
- Provided professional training, exchange programming, and other services to support capacity development across USAID’s development portfolio in Pakistan.
