VSO: Volunteering opportunity for teaching professionals in Myanmar

Myanmar is undergoing a period of education reform. Teacher Educators will play a crucial role in VSO’s teacher education project in Myanmar. Based at an Education College, you will support teacher education reforms in Myanmar and build the capacity of local Teacher Educators (TEs) to deliver the new 4-year pre-service degree course, with a focus on inclusive teaching practices and access, participation and achievement of children with disabilities. All VSO volunteers receive a comprehensive support package which includes onboarding training, accommodation, return airfares, medical insurance, and living allowance paid in local currency. VSO is the world's leading independent international development organisation that works through volunteers to fight poverty in 24 countries around the globe. Our unique role in international development is to place committed volunteers with carefully selected organisations, where their skills can have the greatest impact. Application closing date: 31 March 2019
