Who we are
Teach For Chad is a non-profit organization working to ensure that every child has a quality education that enables them to reach their full potential wherever they are. Our mission is to improve access to quality education for all through strong collective leadership, particularly for children in rural and vulnerable communities. We therefore train leaders capable of developing themselves, their communities and their country in a sustainable manner.
Contribute to providing quality education and life skills to children through young leaders engaged in teaching, but also by working with communities and all stakeholders around collective leadership for systemic and sustainable change.
At Teach For Chad, we believe in these values to transform the education system and the system in general
We believe in the extraordinary potential of all children, and in our collective potential to realize our aspirations. That's why we act with courage, boldness, urgency and perseverance in pursuit of transformational impact.
We need change agents who understand and integrate interculturality into their daily lives. Chad is a country where cultures differ from north to south, with a major impact on cohabitation. This cultural diversity is an opportunity if it is exploited wisely. However, it can also be a brake on change if the prejudices, beliefs, mentalities and stereotypes of the agents of change take precedence over the values and type of leadership advocated by Teach for Chad.
We are convinced that education must adapt to the needs and realities of today's world, integrating new technologies, new methods and new approaches; stimulating innovation, originality and diversity in pedagogical approaches, as well as the ability to solve problems in an adapted way.
We demonstrate courage at both personal and organizational levels. We dare to question our practices, showing initiative, creativity and confidence in ourselves and our ideas. In this way, we can set ourselves apart, renew ourselves and make progress towards a quality education system for all.
We strive for excellence in our work for ourselves and for our students. We do this by adhering to the standards and quality criteria we have defined. We regularly evaluate results, progress and difficulties, taking into account feedback from communities and partners. In this way, we challenge ourselves and strive for continuous improvement.
We seek to ensure the full participation of people from all cultures and backgrounds, and we believe that those who have themselves experienced the inequalities we seek to address should guide and direct this work.
Teach For Chad wants all children in Chad, whatever their background, to have a quality education to realize their potential and have equal opportunities.
Teach For Chad fellows or teachers are recruited on the basis of specific skills identified for student training. By committing to a two-year mission, these teachers work to impart the following skills to their students: development mindset, cultural awareness, agility, solidarity, problem-solving and resilience. They are also committed to transforming communities through collective leadership.
Teach For Chad's vision for its fellows/teachers is therefore to develop committed young people, endowed with personal leadership, capable of transforming the lives of students and communities and, by extension, their country, by promoting inclusive, quality education.
We are looking for candidates who share our vision and mission. They must be passionate about education and motivated to create a positive impact in underserved communities.
Education is constantly evolving. Our teachers must have the courage and audacity to create and innovate to meet the needs of the moment. They must be responsive, flexible, and able to adapt to new teaching methods and changing circumstances in their environment. They must remain connected locally and globally, for themselves and for their students.
Education is a challenge, but also an opportunity for transformation. Our teachers must be able to manage the stress and emotions they will be subjected to. They will be criticized negatively by their colleagues, but they must persevere to achieve the goal they have set for themselves, together with the students and the community.
Please feel free to contact us for any collaboration or information you may need to make this project a success.
