STAESA provide volunteers with unique and exciting work placements in community projects, small scale industries, private institutions, public institutions, community based organizations, and non-profit organizations (NPOs). This program is a great opportunity for students, professionals, and the general public to get hands-on-experience, to see and understand more about African cultures, and to live like the people you are helping. All program participants live with experienced and hospitable host families who are always ready to receive our volunteers into their homes. STAESA strives to establish an international family relationship by which the host families have a connection to their volunteers, and their families. Independent dwellings are available, if desired. Together with you we make a difference in the lives of many people.
We want to make sure all visitors to our site know how our programs work and how to apply for them.
