Vacancy: Learning Facilitator with United in Diversity Foundation (Jakarta)
Have
you ever wondered what the world would look like if our society
placed more value on collective wellbeing rather than personal
wealth? Or if we measured progress not by GDP growth but by
happiness? How might we redesign our education system to value
creativity as much as academic performance? Is there an
alternative social and economic system that would produce an
entirely different outcome than the path we are on at the
moment? If these are the sort of questions that keep you up at
night, or if you ever wished you were more personally involved
in addressing these challenges, you may belong with us at UID!

in Diversity (UID) is a nonprofit foundation based in Jakarta
and founded in 2003 by Universitas Indonesia, Massachusetts

society leaders with a safe space that encourages and enables
