Short-term skills placements Village Africa has a range of short-term placements for people with certain skills.  The skills required change regularly so keep checking the site if nothing matches your skills at the moment, or contact us if you feel you have a skill to offer that we’ve not listed here. The short-term skills placements usually last for 2-3 weeks out in Tanzania and past volunteers have found them extremely rewarding. “The experience of going out to Yamba to do some marketing work for Village Africa was one of the most fantastic experiences I’ve ever had.  Being able to use my skills for something so worthwhile gave me a huge sense of achievement.” Christine The following placements are currently available: ·         Administration ·         Building - Click here for more info ·         Journalism ·         Photography ·         Research ·         Marketing ·         Nursing ·         First Aid ·         Cookery ·         Knitting and crafts ·         Pottery ·         Driving Instruction ·         Environmental Consulting ·         Summer Camp - 2 week working holiday as advertised in The Sunday Times Travel Supplement, starting July 30th 09 If any of these short-term placements interest you please contact "Personal Overseas Development"  for more information.
