New · launching under the Strategic PlanBecome a Facilitator
Run SIA sessions in your own district, with SIA’s training, materials and support. A licence for the SIA Method is coming under the Strategic Plan.
SIA reaches people far from its hubs through local facilitators. Security and distance make it hard to run everything from a hub, so facilitators carry the programmes into other districts, in a language people speak at home. CONFIRM: the districts reached through facilitators (for example Khuzdar).
Under the Strategic Plan 2026–2031, the SIA Method will be documented, accredited and licensed. Facilitators who complete the training will be certified to deliver it, and organisations will be able to deliver it under a licence.
CONFIRM: the length of facilitator training and the terms of the licence.

Questions
About becoming a facilitator
Do I need to run a business myself?
No. Facilitators need to be good at helping people learn, and trusted in their community.
Is facilitation paid?
CONFIRM: how facilitators are paid or supported.
Can an organisation take a licence?
Yes, that is the plan. Partner organisations will be able to deliver the SIA Method under a licence. Register interest to hear when it opens.
Which languages will I teach in?
The language your participants speak. SIA trains in Urdu or English, and the Strategic Plan adds manuals adapted for Balochi and Pashto speakers.
I live outside Balochistan. Can I still register interest?
Yes. The facilitator network starts where SIA works today, and grows with the Strategic Plan. Tell us where you are.
