This is the context paragraph:
Se considera estratégico resaltar el papel de la mujer en el sistema de medidas de la defensa civil, teniendo en cuenta que aproximadamente el 50% de las personas involucradas en estas actividades son mujeres. Específicamente en la provincia de Pinar del Río, la Primera Secretaria del Partido y Presidenta del Consejo de Defensa Provincial es una mujer. Asimismo, está previsto que la mayor parte de los capacitadores sean mujeres quienes a su vez capacitarán a niños y niñas como efecto multiplicador de los conocimientos que estos desarrollan en su núcleo familiar.

Regardless of whether they are volunteers or get paid, I think the term that suits the context best is "instructors."

If the "capacitadores" are not paid (which is often the case), you might even consider "volunteer educators/tutors" :-)

Apparently, the focus is on non-formal, popular education, which often involves training in literacy to empower the masses. In this context, those who teach are often referred to as "educators" or "tutors."

: Yes, I like educators, especially as in the original provided they would go on to "educate boys and girls". I don't think trainer/train or instructor/instruct would fit as well in the context provided.

Thanks, Bonita. You're right. In this particular context, trainers/instructors doesn't fit as well. Thanks, again. :-)
