It has been a month now since we launched our volunteering programme in Mwanza. Our first volunteers, Christina, Paulo and Salum engage in contributing to the betterment of our society, while at the same time gaining practical experience in the respective fields of work. While engaging in TAREA´s renewable energy projects (here specifically supporting fishermen/ fisherwomen) and educational work in schools (though Msaada Foundation and Jupe Hills Pre & Primary School), our programme aims to provide guidance and open up perspectives for young people for the step after their volunteering service (further studies or job market integration). We are thankful to all involved people who made this programme possible.
