Lutindi Mental Hospital is a private mental health facility in the scenic Usambara Mountains of Tanzania. Most patients are from the big cities and are addicted to alcohol or illegal drugs, or have schizophrenia or psychosis. Much emphasis is placed on occupational therapy in a rural setting that differs as much as possible from the big city.
With us, you have the opportunity to support a project for children and young adults with various impairments. Unfortunately, these people still face many challenges in Tanzanian society: stigmatization and prejudices are omnipresent and government support is insufficient. A large number of disabled children and young adults are not adequately cared for. We want to change that!
Remote internships are a fantastic opportunity if you can't easily travel internationally, but you still want to work with a foreign organization! With this remote internship you will not only support Tanzanian teachers in planning and designing their lessons, but gain exciting intercultural teaching and learning experiences at the same time.
Virtual internship "Social Work" without travelling from home! You will communicate online with your professional internship supervisor, a social worker from an NGO from Tanzania. You will make virtual visits, for example to schools, families or youth centers during which you can communicate directly online with the beneficiaries of the NGO. Full-time and part-time are possible!
Not sure which professional field you are really interested in? With a job orientation internship in Tanzania, you can combine several short-term internships from various fields and try out what suits you! The minimum duration for each internship is 1 or 2 weeks. You do not need any previous experience or training/studies for these internships and you can take part from the age of 16!
With us, you have the opportunity to support local kindergartens and primary schools in Arusha. Access to education and the associated educational opportunities for children in Tanzania depend very much on the income of their parents. Therefore, not all children get the same opportunities. In our projects, you support the teachers in their daily work.
