Community and voluntary service program is one of the UVIKIUTA core activity aiming to connect people from around the world with local communities in Tanzania. The program offers a powerful
vision built on our belief that volunteers have a vital role to play in development and in building a more just and sustainable world community. The program provides opportunities to experience different cultures, meet people from different countries, learn new or improve skills, take part in peace making and hands-on on various community development projects. It is an exceptional option for people to gain experience in service projects and increase understanding in global issues. Engage volunteers is an
