About Program
In order to tackle some of Swaziland's major challenges - the HIV/AIDS prevalence, orphan children, high unemployment and poverty rates -, entrepreneurship and small businesses have become key factors that have helped families earn some sort of income in their hardest times. Kaya Responsible Travel, however, hopes to help them take another step forward with a new project that will support their initiatives. We're only missing something: YOU!
Kaya's Microfinance Internship is currently seeking interns who can help local people with the early stages of their businesses. Among your main activities, would be working in community-based facilities set up to help children do better in school and hopefully influence their lives as adults, while preparing marketing workshop, educational sessions and develop an evaluation system to award new microloans. You will learn whilst teaching!
This is a great opportunity to polish your CV while helping a community in need!
