Opportunity for individuals or organisations to deliver a skills assessment and programme in Kenya as part the British Council’s Cultural Heritage for Inclusive Growth programme.

British Council is looking for individuals or organisations with a demonstrable track-record in devising and delivering skills programmes to:

provide an in-depth assessment of the skills needs in the cultural heritage sector in Kenya (e.g. museums, archives and libraries)
design and deliver a pilot skills programme (informed by the initial assessment)

Focusing on inventory, archiving and curating skills to ‘tell our own stories’, the programme should offer skills and knowledge to at least 300 cultural and creative professionals, young people, and those who seek cultural heritage as their career.
