Summary
The community psychology program covers education programs, women's programs, programs concerning human rights issues, corporate social responsibility approaches, and other development tasks at the grassroots level in Africa.
Details
Your volunteering program can be tailored accordingly to different groups: children in poverty, children and youth with disabilities, orphaned children, unemployed youth, women in poverty, people with HIV, people recovering from trauma, people recovering from addiction, older people, artists, teachers, etc.
Community psychology means skills and tools that empower us to reach and work with the local community through various programs and tasks.
We use our social media pages for advocacy work, and our Facebook pages have more than 50K followers.
Your internship is supervised daily by academic-level team leaders. We monitor your work with a weekly plan and report system to ensure your success in your study program.
The volunteering outcome is to learn to use and get experience implementing your education in developing country conditions with limited capacity and better understand the opportunities in a fast-growing economy.
This is an ongoing program, so that we can adjust your start dates. We accept the applications of all students and alums. Your placement is tailored according to your background, experience, and interests to empower our daily work with the communities. Your program can last from 2 weeks to 12 months. You can also write a thesis and do related tasks. The typical daily tasks include practical fieldwork, planning, reporting, and visibility.
The start and end dates are flexible and can also accommodate other travel arrangements in Tanzania. International flights, student permits, accommodation, and meals are personal costs.
You and your visiting friends can enjoy sustainable tourism, safaris, and local tours.
We need your tentative arrival and departure dates, which you can adjust, to book you in and open your account.
