Inspire Learning. Celebrate Culture. Empower Communities.

Make a lasting impact by supporting education, creativity, and cultural exchange in Tanzania. ART in Tanzania offers students and professionals the opportunity to work in primary and secondary schools, community centers, and cultural organizations while gaining valuable international experience.

Whether you are passionate about teaching, the arts, music, anthropology, or community development, this multidisciplinary program allows you to share your knowledge, learn from local communities, and contribute to sustainable education initiatives that empower children, youth, and adults.

Participants are specifically needed to cover subjects for which the schools’ abilities to provide education are weak. Essential areas of development include English, arts and music, mathematics, and physical education. The program also includes educational assistance for children living with disabilities. Additionally, interns raise awareness of HIV/AIDS, health, hygiene, and environmental issues, including climate change.

Each placement is tailored to your academic background, skills, and interests. You may work across several educational and community projects.
