Village Women Programs Development Internship in Africa
Details
Description
Summary
Art in Tanzania supports and develops village women's initiatives. The main activities are vocational training in English, IT, entrepreneurship, women's rights, and related subjects. We are also developing medical services and health information sessions.
Details
Art in Tanzania has been operating since 1996. We receive about 250 participants in our community placements annually.
Tanzania has many young village mothers who need more education and financial support. In addition, heavily populated areas complicate the struggle for livelihood and provision for these mothers' children.
Most women lack the opportunity to achieve education to fund and develop small businesses. Additionally, many of these women are under-empowered or unaware of their fundamental human rights, thus making young mothers vulnerable to abuse.
Art in Tanzania focuses on delivering skills for women to start small businesses and create markets for their products. At the same time, we educate women's rights and related subjects to learn their rights in problem situations. We focus on being both innovative and effective.
We are looking to hire multi-professional students and interns to support our work. We tailor the posts to the participant's focus, interests, and skills.
We look for innovation. Interns bring their ideas, which we use to strengthen the fieldwork. We encourage innovation and self-led creativity in the professional program approach.
We use teamwork to create opportunities. For example, one can teach how to start horticulture and look for the markets. The base effort is to increase small business skills through the educational approach and increase awareness.
We also focus on giving visibility to women's issues through social media for the general Tanzanian population.
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.
