Women’s Development Volunteering and Internship

Volunteer Africa supports and develops village women’s initiatives. The main activities include vocational training in English, IT, and entrepreneurship development. Women’s rights fields cover pregnant women’s right to study, domestic violence, and women’s right to inheritance. We are also advocating for public health issues for women’s groups. Tanzania has many young village mothers with little education and financial support. Areas that are often heavily populated complicate the struggle for livelihoods and the provision of basic necessities for these mothers and their children. Most women cannot access education and funding to develop small businesses.

Additionally, many of these women are under-empowered or unaware of their fundamental human rights, thus making young mothers vulnerable to abuse. Art in Tanzania teaches women skills to start small businesses and create markets for their products.

We also educate them on women’s rights and related topics so that women can learn about their rights in challenging situations. We focus on being both innovative and effective. Work with women is underfunded, but Art in Tanzania has multi-professional interns and volunteers to assist. We use teamwork to create opportunities. For example, one can teach how to start horticulture and how to find markets. The base effort is to increase small-business skills through education and awareness. In addition, we give women’s issues visibility through social media for the general Tanzanian population.
