Announcement Positions

Announcement Description

AZAHAR Foundation runs a tiered training pathway for young people from underserved communities in Cambodia. Tier 2 is a facilitator training program — roughly 136 core hours plus supervised practicum — that deepens graduates' skills in facilitation, communication, gender and leadership awareness, and embodied practice (yoga and dance), and serves as AZAHAR's pipeline into Tier 3 facilitator roles.

AZAHAR is recruiting facilitators to develop full session content and deliver defined portions of the Tier 2 curriculum, working from an approved program outline. This is an opportunity to build hands-on training content from the ground up, not simply deliver an existing script.
