Summary
Green Works Africa is partnering with a consortium of NGOs and private sector actors to evaluate and produce solutions to the effects of climate change in Tanzanian society.
Details
Some 75% of Tanzanians live in rural areas, and climate change will seriously affect their livelihoods based on agricultural income.
The most vulnerable groups, such as women, young people, and people with disabilities, are the most affected. This program is a multi-professional student approach to evaluate the present situation, consider future scenarios, and develop solution models.
Our on-field advocacy work takes place in schools and communities. We also use our social media pages for advocacy, and our Facebook pages have more than 50K followers.
You will assist in implementing sustainable solutions such as household solar installations, water reuse and composting and developing simple solutions such as homemade solar cookers.
The internship outcome is to learn to use your studies and experience to work in developing country conditions.
Work hours are 6–8 hours per day, Monday through Friday. Your program can last two weeks to 12 months, and an internship is commonly 2-3 months. The placement starting dates are flexible.
Academic-level team leaders supervise your internship daily. We monitor your work with a weekly plan and report system to ensure you complete your tasks successfully.
We can take students year-round, as all programs are ongoing. Your placement is tailored to your background, experience, and interests to empower your daily work with the community.
You can also do the thesis, related tasks, and internship placement.
The typical morning tasks include practical fieldwork in the schools and communities, and afternoons are for planning, reporting, and social media visibility functions.
The Benefits and Perks are as follows:
Accommodation and meals are personal expenses. For 1–13 weeks, EUR 175 per week covers accommodation with breakfast and dinner and the student compound, and from week 14 onwards, it is EUR 125 weekly.
Airport transfer is EUR 60 in one way, which is a personal expense.
A charity visa for immigration, which costs USD 50, is a personal expense. A multiple-entry visa for less than 12 months is USD 250.
We pay you a USD 50 monthly stipend, which is small but twice Tanzania’s national minimum wage. The grant requires a minimum participation of four weeks.
Flights are a personal expense.
Local transport, if any, is a personal expense.
You and your visiting friends can enjoy low-cost, sustainable tourism safaris and adventure trips.
