Singing Program Coordinator -- Part-Time (cont.) About CambodiaSings! CambodiaSings! is a non-profit organization dedicated to rekindling the joy of singing for all Cambodians. We are igniting the joy of group singing in Cambodia. Singing together creates a safe opportunity to express yourself, bridge differences and build creative confidence. With our evolving team of local and visiting singing guides, we partner with schools and NGOs to add group singing into their work with young people. For many of our participants, singing has become a rare opportunity to realize that their voice is valued and important. The singing culture of Cambodia suffered a tragic setback during the Khmer Rouge era. Famous singers were killed and people who raised their voices in any way risked their lives. This national silencing left a legacy of fear of speaking and singing up. With rare exceptions, singing is still not taught in the schools. But the culture and diverse artistic richness in Cambodia are rising again. We’re committed to a future where singing together is part of every Cambodian child’s experience of growing up and finding their place, their voice in the world. We see a future where Cambodia is known for the richness of its singing culture. To apply for this position or find out more, please email Ms. Srey Peuv:
