Our Vision

and Mission.

Empower Teachers to become Civic Agents and constructive Change-Makers

  • Improve the quality of educators with a focus on their virtuousleadership skills (their know-how-to-be)
  • Promote reconciliation and reform in Lebanon, starting with educators

Why

we do it.

Teachers and educators in general are the shapers of minds, the inspirers of values and the builders of the civic agency of their students. Their role hence cannot be limited to mere academic knowledge. In fact, the emphasis on teachers’ values and virtues boosts their academic excellence while activating their civic role.

Teachers with TASC cease being passive executers of public policies. They become themselves policy makers.

Hence the motto of TASC is “we are teachers and we have a task/c”
