    Key Areas of FocusLearn from Qualified Doctors

    You’ll spend your days shadowing doctors during patient consultations, observing medical procedures, and learning about diagnosing and treating diseases. This experience will give you a deeper understanding of how medical professionals handle challenges such as limited resources and funding in Tanzania.

    Work in Different Departments

    Your time in the internship may include rotations through various departments, allowing you to explore different medical fields and discover which specialization resonates with you.

    Participate in Medical Workshops

    Every two weeks, you’ll join workshops led by local medical professionals. These sessions provide hands-on learning opportunities, such as measuring blood pressure or administering first aid. Additionally, you’ll gain insight into the symptoms, prevention, and treatment of tropical diseases like malaria.

You’ll learn how to deliver talks on healthy eating, take blood pressure and sugar readings, and help diagnose basic medical conditions. These initiatives offer essential healthcare services to individuals who may not have access to regular medical treatment.

    Typisk dag

    Your day will start with breakfast with your host family. You'll sit down for a tasty meal before getting ready, picking up your notebook, and catching a dalla dalla, which will zip you off to a local hospital.

    Your typical work day will start at around 7.30am, because Tanzanian hospitals are particularly busy in the mornings. You'll usually finish work at around 3pm.

    You'll be assigned a supervising doctor who will lead you through different consultations and procedures. Take notes, ask questions, and take this opportunity to learn as much as you can. You might have the chance to learn how to take X-rays or practice working with medical equipment.

    You'll help out at medical outreaches about once every two weeks. During outreaches, you'll set up a healthcare station at a local school or community center, and take measurements like blood pressure, blood sugar, height, and weight. This is tiring work and you'll probably screen many different people in one day. But it's also a chance to have direct contact with patients and provide them with early medical screening.

    Once every two weeks, you'll also attend a medical workshop given by a local doctor. At these workshops, you'll learn valuable skills like how to administer first aid or practice suturing.

    Your evenings will be free, giving you the chance to explore your surroundings and get to know your fellow interns.

    A project in Tanzania wouldn't be complete without a safari! This is a chance to see the beautiful wildlife of this country, like elephants, rhinos, and lions.

    What's more, Tanzania is home to the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro. Hiking around the base through lush vegetation is a peaceful way to spend an afternoon.

    Browsing through a vibrant, local market is a must while you're there. You can also spend time in a Maasai village, getting to know a completely different way of life.

    There will likely be many other volunteers in Tanzania with you. This means you have the option to explore the country independently or with a group of like-minded volunteers from different projects.
