Turkey: Supervisor (Gaziantep / Şanlıurfa)

Organization brief:

Basmeh & Zeitooneh in collaboration with several local and civil supporting partners’ organizations (UOSSM, Kesh Malek, Kirkayak, Women Now) have made a joint venture known as “AILE” to implement programs that are relevant to their expertise, and that target marginalized sectors of the community in order to provide opportunities for relief and development.

The organizations established two community centers in two locations in Turkey; a center in Gaziantep and a center in Şanliurfa. Both centers are set to provide services for vulnerable Syrian Beneficiaries that are residing within the local Turkish community areas. Services such as informal education, skills development, and psychosocial support are meant to relieve them from marginalization and empower them for a better future. It is believed that by allowing beneficiaries to develop their skills and capacity building, the chance to live a decent life without the fear of poverty will increase. The centers will provide services that target women, children, and youngsters, with three main sectors: education, skills training, and psychosocial support.

Aile values the diversity of its employees and recognizes that work is best accomplished through the true collaboration of individuals from many cultures with a great variety of skills and perspectives.

The project management recognizes the importance of open communication, encouraging employees to openly discuss job-related problems or suggestions with their supervisors without fear of reprisal.
