Summary

Children, education, nature, development work.

Detailed description

Who are we?
Travel2Connect is a small-scale social enterprise that offers interns and volunteers the opportunity - if you are open to it - to learn from another culture. We put you in direct contact with the local inhabitants of Gambia or Senegal. We strive for you to have an authentic and unique experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Activities
If you think it's important to make a difference in the lives of children, this is an interesting challenge. You will work at an educational center. This center is located on a nearly 1 hectare large orchard with fruit trees, gardens and animals. In the “learning lab”, local children between 7 and 17 years old use tablets with more than 100 apps for language, math, patterns and logic. Also the nature around them; the plants, the animals and the sun (solar energy) provide different learning activities. The project is visited almost daily by about 20 to 50 children.

We ask
* You are at least 18 years old on the departure date.
* You are physically and mentally healthy.
* You are patient, flexible, reliable and interested in other cultures.
* You have affinity or experience with the vacancy or you are following a course for this.
* There is a registration procedure.
* You pay the costs that volunteering in The Gambia entails, such as preparation and supervision costs, flight ticket, accommodation costs and meals.

We offer
* Interesting projects from which you will learn a lot.
* A good preparation in the Netherlands and guidance in The Gambia.
* Pick up service from the airport.
* Introduction day in Gambia.
* A lodging address that serves as a home base where the volunteer can go with questions and relax.
* Various possibilities for excursions and/or workshops.

Time use
In consultation.
