INVYT Junior

If you were interested in INVYT programme, but you are not sure if you would be able to handle it for 9 months, then INVYT Junior is right for you.

The goal of INVYT (International Voluntary Year in Tanzania) Junior programme is to provide young people with the possibility to experience a short-term 2-month period of voluntary service in Tanzania in interaction with other young people from the Czech Republic and Slovakia, in the context of everyday life of our Tanzanian partner organizations.

By joining a short-term voluntary service, INVYT Junior, you will have the chance to stimulate your spiritual, personal and professional development through conscious learning. Social, intercultural and socio-political learning are equally emphasised.

INVYT Junior also provides you with a basis for reflection on a possible follow-up long-term voluntary service programme, implemented in cooperation with sending initiatives in Slovakia and in the Czech Republic.

Voluntary service is implemented at LEA Ministry Pre-, Primary and Secondary School in Dongobesh, as well as at Yeddidias Secondary School in Marethad. The areas of an INVYT Junior volunteer’s action reflect the current needs of the local Tanzanian community, local organisations and Czech and Slovak partner organizations. INVYT Junior volunteers sometimes work jointly, in teams with a maximum of four members, which means another unique experience for you. Specific activities depend on your personal skills and talents.

We sent the first group of INVYT Junior volunteers to Tanzania in the summer 2019. You may read about their experience on the following blog:
