Funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, Katimavik is a national youth volunteer service. It allows groups of Canadians aged 17 to 21 who can speak both English and French to experience their country, serve the community, learn to work together as a group, and develop leadership and communication skills. Katimavik participants spend 36 weeks living in groups of 11 and working on community projects in three different locations - two predominantly Anglophone and one predominantly Francophone. They take part in a wide variety of skills-development activities such as environmental projects, volunteer work, community living, learning about computers and second-language learning.

Financé par le ministère du Patrimoine canadien, Katimavik est un service national de jeunes bénévoles. Il permet à des groupes de jeunes Canadiens âgés entre 17 et 21 ans, qui peuvent s'exprimer dans les deux langues officielles, de mieux connaître leur pays, de servir la collectivité et d'apprendre à travailler en groupe, à diriger et à communiquer. Sur une période de 36 semaines, les participants se rendent dans trois régions différentes - deux majoritairement anglophones et une majoritairement francophone - où ils vivent en groupe de onze et travaillent à des projets communautaires. Ils prennent part à une foule d'activités formatrices, comme des projets environnementaux, du bénévolat, des initiatives axées sur la vie communautaire, la connaissance des ordinateurs et l'apprentissage d'une langue seconde.
