Art in Tanzania and its partners work with the Tanzanian corporate and government institutions to tackle Corporate Social Responsibility issues. These topics also include actions against climate change.
Details
In the Western world, private citizens’ social responsibility is commonly well recognized and introduced in school curriculums and in public advocacy programs.
In Tanzania, private citizens’ social responsibility is poorly known, and the public is not informed about climate change. Corporate policies don’t take social responsibility issues into serious consideration.
At the same time, Tanzania is one of the countries where climate change is strongly affecting the agriculture-based economy.
This program’s goal is to educate the schools and public about social responsibility and to deliver the message in the schools with the help of the Tanzanian business community.
Presently we work with entities such as Dar es Salaam University, TWIGA Cement, Airtel, PVC, NBC Bank, and Coca-Cola, and we are extending the program further. The field operations include working in a tree nursery and partaking in planting operations.
This program has a cross-cutting focus where students of different professions can attend and work together.
We work as a team managed by Art in Tanzania academic level team leaders. The tasks include topics like advocacy work in the schools, developing a corporate social responsibility approach, producing advocative media and visibility, among other similar tasks.
This is an ongoing program so we can adjust your start dates. We accept applications from all students and alumni. Your placement is tailored according to your background, experience, and interests. Your program can be from 2 weeks up to 12 months. You can also conduct thesis and related tasks. The common daily tasks include practical fieldwork, planning, reporting, and visibility tasks.
We offer the local minimum wage of USD 100 per month for paid internships. We also offer stipends depending on the terms of the internship and regulations of your home university. The start and end dates are flexible and can also accommodate other travel arrangements in Tanzania.

We also offer participants with disabilities personal assistants and drivers at additional expenses; USD 30 per week. 24-hour general assistance is available for free.
