Thrive Afghanistan II:

Kiron is partnering with The Liaison Office (TLO) to implement THRIVE Afghanistan 2.0. Together, we are expanding on a previously successful round of the THRIVE Afghanistan program, which has already demonstrated a strong impact for Afghan women under restrictive conditions.

In response to the severe limitations imposed since the Taliban’s takeover in August 2021—including bans on university education and NGO employment—the program offers a critical alternative. Through flexible digital learning, it equips young women and non-binary individuals with essential skills in English, digital skills, and professional development.

The project ensures meaningful access and will continue until May 31, 2027 and includes multiple implementation phases, tutoring, mentoring, and Job preparation and placement activities.

We are looking for a dedicated Working Student to join our Programs Team to support learners in our Thrive Afghanistan II Program. As the Community Support Assistant you will contribute to supporting learners by ensuring the smooth implementation of our program activities and serving as a first-line contact for participants. This is the perfect role for a self-starter who is tech-savvy, detail-oriented, and passionate about improving access to education for underserved communities.
