La experiencia

Programa detallado
Depending on your skills, experience, and interests, you may take part in:
• Community outreach and social work, including visits to local families and support for vulnerable groups
• Fundraising initiatives to support ongoing programs and local needs
• Organizing and participating in sporting events that promote youth engagement and wellbeing
• Administrative and office support such as data entry, reporting, and communications
• Workshops and training sessions, either as a participant or facilitator
• Educational support, including tutoring or assisting in local schools or learning centers
We encourage volunteers to bring their own ideas and passions to the table. Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a lasting difference.
Actividades & Turnos
When you arrive in Karonga, you will be met by a member of the TWESA team and taken to your accommodation to get settled. We can also help you with other tasks such as buying a local SIM (for internet data, texts and calls) or any other essentials you may need.
The next (weekday) morning, you will be taken to TWESA’s office where you will be able to meet other members and volunteers. You will be given a chance to learn about more about TWESA and to introduce yourself to the team. Together we will create a programme which can make best use of your skills, interests and time.
Volunteers generally work five days a week and have their weekends off, although this timetable is flexible (sometimes there will be an activity planned at the weekend.) Every Monday morning there will be a team meeting at the TWESA office for us to share ideas and plan the activities for the week ahead. All volunteers are expected to attend this meeting weekly to enable us to collaborate effectively as a group. All volunteers will also be invited to the TWESA whatsapp group, where we share photos and information about our activities with other members.
For those who have a laptop or who would like to help with grant writing, blogs and other administrative work, we generally spend the mornings in the office (from approximately 8.30 until 12.30) before going for lunch. The afternoon activities can vary depending on the day and the program of the volunteers.
Volunteers with specific skills and experience can request to work with one of our local partners outside of TWESA. For example, we can help doctors or those with a medical background to be placed in a local hospital or arrange for teachers to assist in a school. Volunteers are encouraged to come forward with creative concepts for new projects.
