Community Development in Tanzania

In the Iringa district, needs are immense and resources are few. Since 1987, we've worked in partnership with local leaders to bring human and economic resources to children and families in small villages in one of the most impoverished countries in the world. Many volunteers are needed to teach English, offer public health education basic instruction, to help paint classrooms, build dormitories, install water systems, and assist with other labor tasks related to the repair and expansion of the village school facilities. more

Trip details

Global Volunteers needs help from people to work alongside local teachers and students during the school year in remote partner communities of Tanzania. Our hosts make certain your skills and interests are put to the best use on long-term community infrastructure and teaching and medical projects. Your efforts will help ease the suffering and engender hope for the future of students and their families. Lend your heart and hands to make a world of difference.

Many volunteers are needed to teach beginning through intermediate English pronunciation and conversation in high-school classrooms. English is the language of instruction throughout Tanzania. However, in the remote villages, comprehension is limited.

Physicians, nurses, dentists and physical therapists can serve part-time at rural clinics performing examinations and well-baby checkups. Health care students and other practitioners can offer public health education classes and basic instruction to rural health care workers. Volunteers are always needed to help paint classrooms, build dormitories, install water systems, and assist with other labor tasks related to the repair and expansion of the village school facilities.
