SeeBeyondBorders Ireland – Recruiting Trustees
Who We Are
SeeBeyondBorders Ireland (seebeyondborders.ie) is an Irish-registered development charity dedicated to improving primary education in Cambodia. Fewer than 3% of 15 year olds reach basic proficiency in maths or reading, a legacy of the devastation caused by the appalling Khmer Rouge regime under Pol Pot.
We believe that well-trained teachers are key to transforming children’s futures. Our partner organisation, SeeBeyondBorders Cambodia, is locally led and delivers evidence-based teacher training to embed best practices in Cambodian public schools.
We uphold high professional standards and were proud winners in our category at the Carmichael Good Governance Awards in November 2024.
