Looking for a project but can't find your field anywere?
Our South African partner has over 50 placement fields and 25 years experience.
So, please enquire with us for more info. Some of the fields mentioned here:
Role of the intern:
We do not expect our interns to take on a job position, but rather take on the role of advisor; offering advice, suggestions and assistance in creating strategies that will make long term impacts. Also to teach a staff members a new skill that would impact on their futures as well as making a difference in the public image of the organization. Project work depends on the study background, expertise and experience of the volunteer/intern.
Is it safe in the African country where I want to go?
Each country is different in terms of safety, but in the countries of our projects normally there is political stability and we are always in close contact with our partners about the situation. Crime differs from country to country and we therefore elaborate on this during our safety preparation before departure. We can never give guarantees, but of course we do everything to make your stay as safe as possible together with the local supervisors.
I would like to go to Africa alone (as a woman), is that possible?
Certainly, but one country/partner project is more suitable than the other. We are happy to give you personal advice on this.
How can I prepare safety wise?
Read about the safety in the country you are going to, also in our brochure. Take the safety advice during the last LGA interview very seriously. Always follow the advice of the local supervisors and rather be too careful than too naive!
Can I do a project with vulnerable children?
What is your policy to protect the rights of the child?
