Om programmet

Our volunteer program in Zanzibar, plays a vital role in addressing social issues related to early childhood education and development in low-income communities. Many families in the area struggle to access quality education for their children, leading to limited opportunities for their future. Our program aims to bridge this gap by providing nurturing childcare and quality education in a safe and supportive environment. By volunteering with us, you'll directly contribute to improving the lives of children and fostering positive change in the community.

Our program focuses on childcare and teaching at a local pre-primary school in Zanzibar. Volunteers work alongside local educators to support the physical, cognitive, and emotional development of children from low-income families. Your role as a volunteer involves engaging with children through various activities, assisting with literacy and math lessons, and promoting play-based learning for effective education.

Surroundings and Locations: Volunteers will be working and living in the picturesque coastal village of Paje, surrounded by stunning beaches and vibrant local culture. The pre-primary school where volunteers will be placed is conveniently located within walking distance from the hostel accommodation, providing easy access to both work and leisure activities.

Working Partners: Volunteers will work closely with local educators and staff at the pre-primary school, collaborating to provide quality education and care for the children. Our team provides guidance and support to volunteers throughout their placement, ensuring a rewarding and fulfilling experience.

Expectations and Equipment: We expect volunteers to bring a compassionate attitude and a willingness to engage with children from diverse backgrounds. No special equipment is required, as we provide all necessary materials for the tasks at hand. Volunteers can expect comprehensive training, guidance, and support from our team, along with opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Indkvartering

During your stay, you’ll enjoy a warm welcome at our cozy hostel in Paje, where our local team and coordinators are always available to help. While this is budget accommodation, we’re proud to offer more amenities and comforts than most standard volunteer housing.

Our hostel includes a vibrant Island dining area, plenty of cozy couches, a large pool, and a lively bar area! We are just a quick 3-5 minute walk from the beautiful white sand beach, and our location is ideal for exploring nearby cafes, ATMs, restaurants, gyms, supermarkets, and shops, all within walking distance.

Your rooms have been newly renovated, are clean, and each has a private ensuite bathroom with a hot shower. Most, but not all, of our rooms also have air conditioning, which is a luxury on the island!

Rooms are shared with other volunteers and travelers, making it easy to connect and share experiences. As such, you will need to be mindful of organization and use the small personal space you have to ensure everyone is happy. It’s also important to stay mindful that this is budget accommodation in a developing country, so you may not quite find everything you have back home, but it’s all about the experience and remembering where you are.

Our common areas—both indoors and outdoors—offer great spaces to relax and unwind after a rewarding day at your placement.

Also, being a hostel, we recommend bringing your own towel. And as with many developing regions, occasional power and WiFi cuts do happen, so a bit of patience goes a long way.

With complimentary high-speed WiFi (when available!), you can still easily stay in touch with family and friends back home. We hope you’ll find our hostel to be a friendly, comfortable place to recharge and connect with fellow volunteers!

Mad og drikkevarer

Breakfast and Dinner is provided each day.

We offer a mix of local and Western dishes like rice-based meals, curries, fish, and pasta, along with drinks like fruit juices and chai. We're happy to cater to special dietary needs, like vegetarian or vegan diets, ensuring everyone can enjoy delicious and satisfying meals during their time with us.

Om projektet

Boresha Maisha Projects seek to provide communities with education about sustainable solutions to their problems through the work of experienced volunteers.

Mød din vært

We wish to create possibilities for communities and individuals to grow and develop in order to create a better future. We seek to provide communities with education about sustainable solutions to their problems instead of fast and easy solutions. How do we plan to do that? By continues education provides by experienced individuals with knowledge and specific education to a certain field. And this is where we need you!

Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. We are searching for strong individuals, who wish to bring their knowledge and education and pass it on to communities and work places in Arusha, Tanzania. We believe that this education and sharing of knowledge is the way to solve many of the problems, the developing countries in the 21st century are facing. But we need you to help us with it.

Boresha Maisha Project emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community. Having seen the bad effects of "voluntourism" many of the volunteering platforms create, we wished to find more sustainable projects, where the impacts will last and not just be forgotten with the next arriving volunteers. We wish to create platforms specifically for volunteers with the appropriate skills and this way ensure that the volunteers will be in surroundings where they feel safe and have an expertise. Look through our projects and see if we have one, that fits you. They get updated regularly, so don't worry if you don't find the one, you were looking for.  

Established in 2017, we’re an organization driven by progressive ideas and bold actions. Help us break the circle of "voluntourism" and projects who are ruining communities and families instead of keeping them together.
