FAQ
ⓐ What is Project Vinculum
We are a Turkey-based non-profit social innovation organization that aims to deliver STEM education to middle and high school students in Turkey who have limited access to resources and opportunities due to their socio-economic status, gender, or geographic location.
ⓑ Will There Be A Language Barrier
Absolutely not! :) All of our Turkish team members, including our founder & CEO, are proficient in English and most of them even speak more than two languages. Furthermore, all of the international positions are specifically tailored for the international applicants--so we thought about all the possible problems beforehand and made sure that you will never encounter them!
ⓒ Why Should I Join & What Should I Expect
➡ It is an "out of the box" experience that will stand out on your resume: it proves that you are confident enough to get out of your comfort zone and be a part of an international team!
➡ You will work closely with our CEO and the International International EXCO to develop and grow our organization: it's an opportunity to make lots of friends from a different country and grow your network!
➡ Unfortunately, Turkey is one of the epicenters of educational inequality and there are not many NPO/NGOs working to change that, so your work and effort will be recognized and actually make a huge difference in many people's lives.
➡ This is an unpaid position, but it is an amazing opportunity for you to be a part of a truly international team!
➡ Your workload will be a maximum of 3-4 hours per week.
➡ International EXCO (Executive Committee) meetings will be held weekly/bi-weekly, you are expected to be present unless you have a valid reason for not to participate.
