The women empowerment program has the aim to teach women to overcome difficult situations by showing them skills through education to improve their quality and of their families´. Volunteers can help better the lifestyle of the Tanzanian women by supporting them and teaching useful manual work skills – such as sewing, crocheting and knitting.

Besides the marketing improvement, there are many inherent life-skills to be taught, such as the importance of team-work, communication and discipline.

As a volunteer in the women empowerment program, you will be working in various areas of the project like:

Education: Volunteers can teach skills that are useful to the women in the project. Common subjects include enlightenment of women  such like prevention & sicknesses like HIV, AIDS. Also it is very important that the women are taught to be how to build an independent life and earn their own Gehalt/Lohn. While the women are doing their manual work, you are able to spend some time with young children and kids.

Manual work: If you love manual work and have a little ability for that, then you can have a positive impact for women. Volunteers at the community program can help improving manual work skills of the women such as sewing, crocheting and knitting. Support is always needed to help them gain confidence in what they are doing.

Marketing: Volunteers can help to market products made by women in the project and to help the project gain more visibility. Help in marketing can be digital or through traditional means.

Improving life-skills bring people together and help to build strong communities. Volunteers will be helping in the organization in all aspects of community; from teaching manual work to women to improve their skills to educating kids/ young people. This project is a good chance for you to improve your skills and ability as well as helping local children and women to develop their talents.

Be prepared to do a little bit of everything! One of our core values is that everything is important. Some days we will be teaching manual work skills – the other day educating kids and doing marketing promotion. The key to keep in mind is that EVERYTHING we do is of great importance. You will work alongside and under the leadership of our coaching staff. One key to your success will be to develop proactive leadership skills. We will schedule out a lot of things with you, but we welcome new ideas!
