As an intern you would work with the local NGO Waridi La Matumaini. It is assisting marginalized children and their families. The activities of your internship include supporting the social worker and counsellor in doing family visits, counselling, school
visits and other jobs; organising projects for the supported children; getting insights in the work of a Tanzanian NGO; cooperating with Rose of Hope Tanzania e. V. in Germany; fundraising for the project; and technical advice for the project (social media, publicity work, brochures, etc.).
You will be volunteering through the organization SHAMIRI. Part of the successful volunteering is the pedagogic concept our organization follows. This concept focuses on global learning and the development of engagement. You as a Volunteer always have the chance to co-create your seminars.
