InStudents

InStudents is building a global, student-led movement to close the education and employability gap for young people in underserved regions. Across rural and low-income areas, students often lack access to quality career guidance, practical learning, and opportunities to connect with employers. Traditional, top-down aid models frequently fail because they overlook local context and community ownership. InStudents flips this model by empowering local student leaders to design and deliver free, career-focused education that meets the specific needs of their peers.

Through its Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP), students in underserved regions access co-created courses via accessible platforms like WhatsApp, designed in partnership with UK universities and global companies. Meanwhile, the Impact Champions Project builds a global network of student societies tackling local education challenges, creating a model that is both locally led and globally connected. By combining technology, collaboration, and youth empowerment, InStudents is redefining educational equity—ensuring that a student’s potential is determined by ambition, not background.

InStudents

InStudents is building a global, student-led movement to close the education and employability gap for young people in underserved regions. Across rural and low-income areas, students often lack access to quality career guidance, practical learning, and opportunities to connect with employers. Traditional, top-down aid models frequently fail because they overlook local context and community ownership. InStudents flips this model by empowering local student leaders to design and deliver free, career-focused education that meets the specific needs of their peers.

Through its Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP), students in underserved regions access co-created courses via accessible platforms like WhatsApp, designed in partnership with UK universities and global companies. Meanwhile, the Impact Champions Project builds a global network of student societies tackling local education challenges, creating a model that is both locally led and globally connected. By combining technology, collaboration, and youth empowerment, InStudents is redefining educational equity—ensuring that a student’s potential is determined by ambition, not background.

Delivery Coach (AI for Educators Initiative)

A great mission needs a high-performing, collaborative team. We are looking for a facilitative leader to be the Delivery Coach for our 'AI for Educators' initiative. As the volunteer Delivery Coach, you will act as the servant-leader for the project team. You will be responsible for the "how" (fostering collaboration, removing impediments, and guiding the team towards high performance and continuous improvement). You will work in close partnership with the Service Lead and will have the constant support of our founder and senior leadership.

Accountabilities

• Facilitate team events (e.g., planning sessions, check-ins, retrospectives) to oversee the delivery of work.
• Coach and support the delivery team, encouraging a culture of collaboration, self-organisation, and accountability.
• Proactively identify and remove impediments or blockers that hinder the team's progress.
• Protect the team from external disruptions, allowing them to focus on their work.
• Support the Service Lead in maintaining a clear and prioritised backlog.
• Track and communicate team performance to promote transparency and identify areas for improvement.

Your Impact

Your impact will be a thriving, happy, and effective team that can change lives. By creating a supportive and efficient environment, you will empower our global volunteers to do their best work. This will directly translate into high-quality resources that touch the lives of teachers and thousands of their students in communities that need it most.

ReviveBattery

ReviveBattery mitigate the early death of lead-acid batteries and regenerate them 2-3 times for up to 90% of their original capacity. In the process, they reduce 3.5 tons of Co2 emissions per battery. Battery recycling is an emission-intensive chemical process that causes environmental damage and harms people engaging with it. Their cutting-edge technology rejuvenates batteries without damaging them, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and avoiding the need for energy-intensive recycling.
