Apply Scholarship of Arash Hadipour Niktarash: (Deadline 1 November 2021)

Application details

Arash Hadipour Niktarash is aware of the higher education costs in the US and the plight of brilliant students pursuing higher education, but with little or no money to fund their advanced studies. The cost of education is so high in America that it is beyond the reach of low-income families. Only the rich and affluent students can afford such expensive education in the country, which is unfortunate, as Arash Hadipour Niktarash believes. So he has been offering the Arash Hadipour Niktarash Scholarship for students to help them with their finance.

The prize money for writing the best essay will help these students access higher education in the US easily. When you have more doctors and scientists in the country, it will benefit society as a whole, and bridge the employment gaps in America.

Financial Aid

Arash Hadipour Niktarash has come up with this scholarship program as a financial aid consisting of $1,000, prize money for that student who writes the best essay. The gift-aid is a payment for the most brilliant and deserving student to realize his or her higher education fees in an accredited college or university.

Requirements

  • The students need to fulfill some specific requirements when applying for the Arash Hadipour Niktarash program. Then, you must be brilliant and the most deserving candidate to apply for the cash prize.
  • The student must be in a high school or college that is affiliated to any US accredited or recognized college or university.

(X30) Data collectors/Enumerators at Prison Fellowship Rwanda: Deadline:17th January 2021

BASELINE SURVEY ON REINFORCING COMMUNITY CAPACITY FOR SOCIAL COHESION THROUGH SOCIETAL TRAUMA HEALING IN BUGESERA DISTRICT.

 JOB ANNOUNCEMENT FOR DATA COLLECTORS

 Positions: 30 Data Collectors/Enumerators

Duty Station: Bugesera District

I.    Background

 Prison Fellowship Rwanda (PFR) is a non-profit organization that works in partnership with the government of Rwanda and its relevant agencies, local and international organisations as well as UN agencies to foster interventions that support psycho-social healing, peace building and reconciliation, restorative justice, crime prevention, human rights promotion and legal aid, intervening in emergencies as well as nurturing socio-economic empowerment in Rwanda in the wake of the 1994 genocide against Tutsi and its aftermath. Prison Fellowship Rwanda was founded on 01/07/1995, affiliated to the Prison Fellowship International in 1997. It was officially registered and recognized by the ministerial order no 037/17, of 23/10/2002, by the Ministry of Justice as a non-profit organization, published in the official gazette of the Republic of Rwanda in 2002.




Rwanda has identified mental health and trauma healing as areas of priority. A 2018 Mental Health Survey revealed high prevalence of mental health disorders, particularly among survivors of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. In addition, the country’s National Unity and Reconciliation Policy recognises “serious levels of trauma” as a major effect of the genocide that still weighs heavily on society today. It identifies the healing of psychological wounds as a guiding principle on which unity and reconciliation are established. High levels of trauma, anxiety, and depression make it more difficult for people to trust and forgive each other. Trauma affects the ability to open up, receive, and trust others, and it is a major cause of inter-community suspicions, especially between groups of genocide survivors and former genocide prisoners. This has limited people’s ability to cooperate in shared, mutually beneficial economic activities. Based on that observation, Rwanda’s 4th Health Sector Strategic Plan emphasises the need for holistic innovative programmes that simultaneously promote mental health service provision, advance social cohesion, and support sustainable livelihoods.

With funds from European Union (EU), Prison Fellowship Rwanda in partnership with Interpeace is implementing a programme focusing on the linkages between psychosocial wellbeing, reconciliation, and socio-economic development with a goal of reinforcing social cohesion and sustainable peace through scaling up community-based healing initiatives. The Programme is in line with, and will further inform, the Government’s policy of establishing community mental health services to improve the uptake among traumatised individuals of Government-funded mental health support.

In addition, the programme is tailored to the context of Rwanda and is based on a core partnership and the shared expertise of the Rwanda National Unity and Reconciliation Commission, Prison Fellowship Rwanda, and Interpeace; in close collaboration with other key stakeholders such as the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Justice and Rwanda Correctional Services.

II.    Purpose of the baseline survey

Prison Fellowship Rwanda and Interpeace seek to explore the current nature and dimensions of mental health, social cohesion, and economic activities among the genocide survivors, genocide perpetrators, released genocide prisoners, families of genocide survivors and perpetrators, youth’s and citizens’ ownership over the reconciliation processes. Furthermore, the study will assess the current availability and adequacy of services and service providers, in the fields of mental health, social cohesion and livelihoods support. The study will be carried out in all 15 sectors assessing perceptions and attitudes of community members and service providers of their involvement in the above mentioned three components. The baseline survey will provide qualitative and quantitative data information to be used by multiple-stakeholders and to set up benchmark for performance indicators. Also, the baseline survey findings will be used to develop intervention protocols that will be pilot tested in the Bugesera Societal Healing Program Initiative.

Currently Prison Fellowship Rwanda is looking for a qualified and highly motivated candidates of high moral character and professional integrity to fulfill the position of Data collectors/Enumerators to contribute to the successful execution of data collection in Bugesera District.
