Role Summary
Type: 100% volunteer, unpaid
Hours & Time Off: Up to 25 hours/week; flexibility required; two fixed days off per week
Location: Arusha, Tanzania (open to international applicants)
Start / Travel Needs: January 2026 (travel timing may vary; shorter stays, staggered rotations, and remote collaboration before/after the field period are possible). We recruit traveling volunteers year-round; our current priority is candidates who can travel between January and May 2026.

Commitment: Minimum 1 month (ideally 3 months)

Costs: Approx. €300/month for accommodation, food, and local transport. No fees are charged by the NGO for this role. Flights and visa are at your own expense. Subject to grant approval, accommodation may be covered (reducing monthly costs). Tanzania’s cost of living is low compared to Europe, and affordable flight options are available.

Actividades & Turnos

Main Tasks
Field documentation: Record video and photo coverage of team activities, school sessions, community outreach, and relevant veterinary work (non-clinical capture only).

Story capture: Photograph stray animals, community interactions, and program moments; gather short clips suitable for reels and stories.

Interviews & quotes: Conduct brief, consent-based interviews with locals, volunteers, and community leaders for digital storytelling.

Behind-the-scenes: Create backstage/“day in the field” content to humanize our work.

Content pipeline (optional): Assist with planning, drafting captions, basic edits, and scheduling posts.

Organization & handoff: Curate, label, and transfer media with clear folders/filenames and basic shot notes.

Shifts
Volunteers work up to 25 hours per week with two fixed days off.
Shifts vary depending on school schedules and community outreach needs. Activities may take place in different locations around Arusha, and flexibility is required, as field plans can change.
