Our Impact in Tanzania
We work closely with local partner schools in a sustainable way, measuring success by the number of children reached and the hours dedicated to each project. Through regular needs assessments and collaboration with headteachers, we focus on age groups that will benefit most from cross-cultural inclusion, ensuring lasting impact and positive change.
