Central Asia

  • Disability Specialist

    In rural Central Asia, disabled people are marginalized by society, often unable to receive an education and find employment, and trapped in poverty as a result

    Our organization aims to break that cycle, through pioneering community-based rehabilitation programs that support disabled children (and their families) to achieve their full potential.

    We urgently need more qualified workers to strengthen existing programs and expand into new areas, so that the lives of the disabled and their families can be transformed, both physically and spiritually.

    Start Date: As soon as possible
    Commitment Length: 2-3 years

  • Male Health Educator

    HIV/ AIDS is increasing in Central Asia. We need men to get the word out to other men before it is too late.

    Poverty in rural Central Asia drives many men to seek work in Russia for months or years at a time. Although labor migration ensures economic survival of many rural families, its long-term consequences are horrific – the current increases in family breakdown and substance abuse and especially the rising rate of HIV infection can all be directly linked to labor migration.

    Our development organization’s projects take a holistic approach to health education, addressing the facts related to sexual health, HIV infection and other health issues within a moral framework where deeper issues are also addressed.

    In traditional Central Asian culture, such subjects are normally discussed in single sex groups. As a result, our development organization urgently needs men with a health background and training gifts who can lead community-based health education projects aimed at men.
