Summary
Green Works Africa focuses on helping with educational tasks in the nursery, primary and secondary schools in Tanzania, and adult vocational training. The schools we help with are primarily poor village schools. Interns focus on developing primary education and also conduct advocacy work.
Details
Green Works Africa’s educational program is part of our Children’s Agenda approach, implemented by a coalition that includes UNICEF and Save the Children. We work in a village nursery and primary and secondary schools, but we also run adult vocational training with women as the focal point.
The program also includes classes for children living with disabilities. Participants are specifically needed to cover subjects where the schools are weak.
Areas of development include English, arts and music, mathematics, and sports teaching.
Interns also advocate raising awareness about HIV/AIDS, health, and hygiene. Debate-based English training is a trendy subject. We use our social media pages for advocacy work, and our Facebook pages have more than 50K followers. We also highlight teacher-training activities.
Classroom tools are scarce, and the number of pupils in a school can be more than 40.
The working hours are 6-8 hours from Monday to Friday.
Academic-level team leaders are supervising your internship daily. In addition, we monitor your work with a weekly plan and report system to ensure you proceed well in your study program.
The internship outcome is to learn to use and get experience implementing your education in developing country conditions with limited capacitation. Also, to better understand the opportunities in a fast-growing economy.
Work hours are 6-8 hours per day, Monday through Friday. Your program can be from 2 weeks up to 12 months.
The program is ongoing so that we can adjust your start dates. We accept applications from all students and alumni. Your placement is tailored to your background, experience, and interests to empower our daily work with the communities.
You can also proceed with the thesis and related tasks. The typical daily tasks include practical fieldwork, planning, reporting, and visibility.
The start and end dates are flexible and accommodate other travel arrangements in Tanzania.
You and your visiting friends can enjoy low-cost, sustainable tours and safaris.
