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.
Typical day
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.
You can select half-day education or full-day education option. Those selecting the half-day option commonly have other tasks for the afternoons as reporting, planning, curriculum and senior development, and similar tasks.
All participants are to attend visibility and social media advocacy work.
We have vocational educational tasks late afternoon as women group members, adult students and under school-age children come to our compound to attend various education-oriented activities. Here you may try some other subjects as well as Art Therapy sessions, entrepreneurship training, handicrafts, and so on.
Free-time activities
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.

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.
Good access at the project site
Visa, flights, travel insurance or vaccinations are NOT included in the program fees.
An airport pickup isn't included within the program fees either.
The nearest airport is Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar Es Salaam. We assist you to find cheap flights to Tanzania.
Going abroad is an adventure and it is always best to be prepared. Sudden illness or injury, cancellation or theft - a travel insurance for Tanzania provides security and is a plus to have.
If you are intending to volunteer in Tanzania you should seek medical advice before starting your social journey. Check your required vaccinations for Tanzania.
