    Description

    Summary

    Art in Tanzania focuses on helping with educational tasks in the nursery, primary and secondary schools in Tanzania, and adult vocational training. The schools we help with are primarily poor village schools. Interns focus on developing primary education and also conduct advocacy work.

    Details

    Art in Tanzania has been operating since 1996. We receive about 250 participants in our community placements annually.

    Art in Tanzania's Educational program is part of our Children's Agenda approach, implemented by a coalition that includes UNICEF and Save the Children.

    We work in a village nursery and primary and secondary schools, but we also run adult vocational training with women as the focal point.

    The program also includes classes for children living with disabilities. Participants are specifically needed to cover subjects where the schools are weak.

    Areas of development include English, arts and music, mathematics, and sports teaching.

    Interns also advocate raising awareness about HIV/AIDS, health, and hygiene. Debate-based English training is a trendy subject.

    We use our social media pages for advocacy work, and our Facebook pages have more than 50K followers. We also highlight teacher-training activities.

    Classroom tools are scarce, and the number of pupils in a school can be more than 40.

    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.
