MILEENIUM Montréal is a non-profit organization registered with the Quebec government. It was founded to facilitate the process of studying occupational therapy abroad for students from University of Montreal and those from elsewhere in the world.
This project came from three motivated students who went to study abroad in 2012. Back from our trip in January 2013, we let part of ourselves in each of our new country. We wanted to relive the experience while helping those that would get the chance to go elsewhere as we did. Therefore, we chose to share our knowledge in order to help others and connect people that would have lived that unique opportunity.
MILEENIUM is a family, a crossroad to meeting incredible people sharing a passion for occupational therapy and travel.
Our world is amazing and we believe that anyone wanting to discover it should be able to do it to the fullest!
We will be more than happy to see you come and visit, get involved or just talk to us!
Kind regards,
Harmine Christina Léo, Elise Meyer, Claudia Rajaonah
