The Program Coordinator will work to identify community education and training needs and develop, implement and evaluate the program.

The programme will be strongly based on Adult Education principles and a participatory approach. It will emphasize that everyone has knowledge to contribute and encourage people to see themselves as peacebuilders and develop agency in that role.
