This is a development opportunity, spending 8 weeks in Lesotho, supporting college students with your psychosocial expertise and guidance counselling, as part of the International Learning Opportunities Programme funded by the Welsh Government.
The placement is based in a college which offers initial teacher training as well as continuing professional development for educators in Lesotho.
The college’s student support unit has been recently established and is still developing.
In this placement you will provide learner support to college students.
You will have expertise in psychosocial support and/or guidance counselling and will be able to offer an empathetic, non-judgemental approach to student matters.
For further details or to apply, email the Welsh Government Wales and Africa team at walesandafrica@gov.wales.
The International Learning Opportunities programme (ILO) provides a unique opportunity to spend 8 weeks in Lesotho, Namibia or Uganda.
We source a wide range of projects with a diverse group of established partners in these three very different countries.
The ILO programme aims to improve the social, environmental and economic wellbeing of both sub-Saharan Africa and Wales through a variety of mutually beneficial projects, in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The ILO programme gives individuals from the public, business and third sectors in Wales the opportunity to work on projects designed to both enhance their leadership skills and deliver a developmental outcome for their hosts. The opportunities listed illustrate placements requested but other opportunities may also be available. Overall, we conduct about 10 placements a year and would not expect to deploy more than one person to an organisation at a time. This scheme is open to anyone who lives or works in Wales. We are particularly interested to receive applications from members of the African diaspora.
