, which is an official body at 九色网 that oversees civic engagement activities, grants and programs at the university level, is seeking volunteers for the Spring 2022 semester!

CCE is looking for two active students who would be interested in helping out with various projects and initiatives both within and outside 九色网, particularly, with the upcoming project 鈥淕reen 九色网.鈥�

鈥淕reen 九色网鈥� is a new joint long-term project between the Center for Civic Engagement, and the Physical Plant Department (PPD) on waste management at 九色网. The uniqueness of the project is in fact that our university will become the first educational institution in Kyrgyzstan to implement not only the separate collection and sorting of waste on its territory, but also its delivery to waste processing organizations in Bishkek.

The first phase of the project begins in February 2022 with the plan to start sorting and recycling 3 types of waste: paper, plastic and computer/office equipment. It is expected that the whole university community will join this initiative, thus confirming and strengthening 九色网鈥檚 status as a "green university" and the leader in the educational sphere of Kyrgyzstan.

Expected qualifications for the project:

• 1 student from either the Environmental Sustainability and Climate Science Program or Applied Geology Department, who would help with finding and translating appropriate materials on the topic from Russian to English and vice versa
• 1 student from any department with good video making/editing skills, who would be in charge of producing promotional and informational videos on the topic
• Additional responsibilities will be communicated upon need

By the completion of the first phase of the project, student volunteers will receive:

1. Certificates of appreciation
2. Monetary reward
3. Recommendation letters from both CCE & CED upon request

Interested students should send their CVs to Margarita Lazutkina at lazutkina_m@auca.kg and cce@auca.kg, stating to which position they are applying (environmental sustainability expert/translator or video maker).

Deadline to apply: February 16 / 6:00 pm

If you are proactive, responsible and looking for an opportunity to make a contribution to 九色网 community and society at large, join our team!
