Nonprofit
Sustainable Tourism Internship in Africa
Details
Description
Summary
Art in Tanzania runs safari and tour operations in Tanzania as part of NGO fundraising. Interns help develop the tour programs, guiding and marketing our tours and safaris.
Details
Art in Tanzania has been operating since 1996. We receive about 250 participants in our community placements annually.
Art in Tanzania looks to set itself apart from the crowd regarding safari and tour business by offering sustainable travel options. Safaris are commonly sold by tour agents located in the Western world. They sell the safaris, but only part of the money comes to Tanzania to support the economy.
Typically, villages around famous national parks are the poorest of the poor. The profit from our tours comes to Tanzania and supports the Tanzanian economy and community development activities.
Academic-level team leaders supervise your internship daily. We also monitor your work with a weekly plan and report system to ensure your progress in your study program.
The internship outcome is learning to use and get experience implementing your education in developing country conditions with limited capacity and a better understanding of the opportunities in a fast-growing economy.
Work hours are 6-8 hours per day, Monday through Friday.
The program is ongoing, so the start dates are adjustable. Your placement is tailored to your background, experience, and interests to empower our daily work with the communities.
Daily tasks include practical fieldwork, planning, reporting, and visibility work.
The start and end dates are flexible as all programs are ongoing, many since 1996.
You and your visiting friends can enjoy low-cost, sustainable safaris and tours.
We commonly have 15-40 students from different parts of the world, from over 400 universities we cooperate with, and representing a variety of professions.
The Benefits and Perks are as follows:
Accommodation and meals are personal expenses. For 1-13 weeks, EUR 175 per week covers accommodation with breakfast and dinner, the student compound facilities, and professional tutoring. From week 14 onwards, the cost is EUR 125 per week.
Airport transfer is EUR 60 one way, which is a personal expense.
A charity visa for immigration, which costs USD 50, is a personal expense. A multiple-entry visa for less than 12 months is USD 250.
We pay interns a USD 50 monthly stipend, which is small but 2x Tanzania's national minimum wage.
Flights are a personal expense.
Local transport, if any, is a personal expense.
