BURKINA FASO
Teaching / Education
This project require a lot of intiative and resourfulness. As life in Burkina Faso is quite different from what you are used to here, your ability to adapt to a new environment will be essential.

This program is ideal for interns who would like to be involved with education initiatives in rural, semi-urban and urban environments. Interns will also have the opportunity to experience true everyday African realities. Volunteers will participate in teaching activities and support the local teachers. This will be an experience of a lifetime that will also provide you with practical skills. The program also seeks to broaden the horizons of local children through an interschool correspondence and sponsorship program.
