Job description

Rising Capacities for Children Africa (RICCA)

Rising Capacities for Children Africa (RICCA) tackles child poverty in rural Kenya, especially in Kirinyaga County, by creating inclusive, child-friendly learning environments. Through the Ricca Afterschool Center, children aged 6–17 access personalized support, mentorship, and engaging programs in arts, sports, agriculture, and digital literacy. These activities foster academic success, creativity, social skills, and life competencies while making learning fun and accessible. RICCA also works with schools to improve teacher quality, infrastructure, and resources, and engages parents in the process. By bridging rural–urban gaps and promoting intercultural dialogue, RICCA empowers communities, protects children’s rights, and breaks cycles of poverty through education.

After-School Curriculum Design Specialist

About RICCA

RICCA is a grassroots organization in rural Kenya working to create equal learning opportunities for marginalized children in public primary schools. We run after-school centers that provide safe, creative spaces where children can learn through play, storytelling, and exploration — not just exams.
RICCA was founded by Kenneth Gitari, whose own journey from a small rural village inspired him to reimagine education so that every child, no matter their background, can dream, learn, and thrive.

  • Integrate play-based, creative, and culturally relevant learning approaches for children in rural settings.
  • Collaborate with our team to develop fun, practical lesson ideas and facilitator guides.
  • Support the training of local facilitators on effective, inclusive teaching methods.
  • Develop adaptable learning materials and frameworks that community educators can easily use.

Who You Are

  • You have experience in Curriculum Development, Education Design, or Child Development.
  • You’re familiar with alternative learning approaches such as project-led or experiential learning.
  • You’re creative, resourceful, and passionate about education equity.
  • Experience with rural or resource-limited settings is a strong plus.

What You’ll Gain
