UGS Teaching Internship and Fellowship
The UGPF is now looking for ambitious, goal-oriented volunteers. As a completely volunteer-run organization, the UGPF relies on its dedicated volunteers to advance, learn, and complete tasks. Being a UGPF volunteer entails taking charge, and having fun while contributing to the development of the Umran community.
The Umran Green School (UGS) is a world-class, rapidly-expanding voluntary based online language and culture school and non-profit organization which aims to provide marginalized and underresourced learners with high-quality language education. The UGS is constructed on and inspired by the concept of Ibn Khaldun’s ilm al-umrān, Walter Gropius’s Bauhaus movement, and Bruce B. Lawrence’s barzakh logic. Umran Green School works with a diverse group of international volunteers to carry out its goal.
Umran Green School Language program focuses on:
- Skill development of learners, helping them to secure academic and employment opportunities in their respective fields while encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship.
- A particular focus on youth, especially women, rural and marginalized populations.
- Consciousness about shared societal issues relating to environment, women’s empowerment, humanitarian aid, and international collaboration.
- A particular sensability towards and awareness of the natural environment, our place within it, and its relevance to the global umrān.
- Cultural exchange and exploration via language learning, promoting an atmosphere of solidarity amongst various communities, nations, religions and civilizations.
- A culture of diversity achieved by bringing into communication motivated individuals from around the globe.
- Exposure to an international academic environment where English is the common language.
