    About the program

    Art in Tanzania complies with the Children's Agenda Tanzania program, focusing on children's and women's rights. We also have the Art in Tanzania Rights team, comprising our team members, private Tanzanian lawyers, and other rights-oriented citizens, as well as participating interns and volunteers.

    The practical work involves advocacy, seminars, teaching, and visibility. Rights issues are always sensitive, and teamwork and networking are essential. The Children's Agenda program coalition, which includes UNICEF, Save the Children, and others, is chaired by the Ministry of Community Work, Gender and Children.

    We are looking to hire multi-professional students and interns to support our work. We tailor posts according to the participant's focus, interests and skills.

    Interns work in teams of international students and volunteer professionals. We encourage innovation in the program approach. Work hours are 6-8 hours per day, Monday through Friday. Children's Agenda is an ongoing program, and we can adjust start dates.

    Fieldwork takes place in the schools and community groups. Academic graduate team leaders guide the program.

    Typical day

    Typical working hours are from 9 AM to 1630 PM, but we may also have seminars and meetings in the evenings and on weekends. The nature of the work is to follow the time when the target groups are free.

    Typical day

    Typical working hours are from 9 AM to 1630 PM, but we may also have seminars and meetings in the evenings and on weekends. The nature of the work is to follow the time when the target groups are free.


    The participant will develop human rights materials to study the present legislation and its changes. Some rights issues, such as LGBT rights, are sensitive in Africa and must be addressed accordingly. 

    Much of the work involves advocating for the implementation of existing human rights laws. The general public does not know their rights, and we support vulnerable groups such as women, children, and disabled people. You will utilise existing toolkits for seminars, develop further ones, and create new ones.

    Much time will be spent on visibility. For example, Facebook is an excellent tool for reaching Tanzanians. Art in Tanzania's Facebook page has 38k likes, and we can deliver information to tens of thousands of Tanzanians.

    We serve breakfast and dinner as part of the lodging cost at our compound. Lunches are not included, as most of the participants are out of the compound during the daytime. Local eating places around your placement are available at a low cost.
