Art in Tanzania Educational program is part of our Children’s Agenda approach implemented by a coalition including UNICEF, Save the Children, and others.
We work in village nursery, primary and secondary schools but we also run adult vocational training where the focal point are the women. 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 in subjects as HIV/AIDS, health, and hygiene. We also highlight teacher-training activities.
Tools in the classrooms are scarce also the size of the classroom can be 40 students up. Energetic and innovative teachers are needed.
This is an ongoing program and we can adjust the starting dates. The working hours are 6-8 hours per day from Monday to Friday.
Schools open up AM so you leave the compound after breakfast at about AM at 8 earliest and some schools are just within walking distance.
During your free time, you can enjoy low-cost safaris to Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and other National parks. You can join our groups climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and move on to relax at Zanzibar beaches. We have also a variety of one-day programs for short breaks as diving and snookering at the reefs, swimming with dolphins, rainforest trekking at Kilimanjaro, live African music, a variety of sports programs, craft making as batik making courses, and so on. You will enjoy your stay in Tanzania.
The fee includes accommodation, breakfast, and dinner, program guidance with orientation, and 24 hours of staff presence and academic graduate team leaders for all programs.
The actual program is free of cost. You may have local small transfer costs.
Cost does not include international flights, local transfers, charity volunteer VISA, and personal purchases.
Our eco-compound in Madale village in the Dar es Salaam area has dorms, single, double, and family rooms. As an eco-compound we use our own design composting dry toilets, we collect shower water and urine and use it as "grey water" for our large garden irrigation. Construction materials include bamboo, recycled bottles, and similar. This compound is located in Madale village, so it is a countryside place but a short distance from the city as well.
We charge accommodation with breakfast and dinner only.
We serve breakfast and dinner as accommodation inclusive. Lunches are available at a nominal cost, but you need to book one every morning as many people are not at the compound we cook and charge only those who are present and wish to have lunch.
All drinks are personal cost. Drinking water is available everywhere at a low cost. We also run a compound bar, so you have easy access to drinks and snacks.
After we have been booking you we send you a charity invitation letter for the online charity work VISA application. The Charity volunteer or student VISA cost is USD 50 and it is for a maximum of 3 months. If you stay longer term we assist the new permit process.
Our driver will be waiting for you at the airport and the first day after your arrival you get program orientation.
