Physiotherapy, Occupational therapy, speech therapy

Physically challenged people have it twice as hard if they live in countries without social systems. Their position in society traditionally excludes them from education and hence makes it even more difficult for them to do a job and live an independent life. Many disabled people in developing countries live in poverty and are totally depending on other persons.  

In Zanzibar, we can offer student placements and volunteer positions in the fields of physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. The student placements will take place at the Mnazi Mmoja government hospital which runs a sufficiently equipped physiotherapy/ occupational therapy ward with qualified staff.

Volunteer work for qualified therapists is possible at Mnazi Mmoja and at UWZ (Zanzibar Association of the Disabled). UWZ has the aim to improve the life of people with disabilities. The organization is not only doing lobby work, but it is arranging really helpful projects  which have the goal to integrate people with disabilities into society. To support the team, UWZ is looking for volunteers of physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy.

At UWZ, volunteer work will only take place 2-3 days per week when some staff of UWZ will drive to the villages of Zanzibar for therapeutic visits. During the other days of the week, volunteers can assist at the physiotherapy or occupational therapy ward of Mnazi Mmoja Hospital which also operates its own outreach program to the villages of Zanzibar that volunteers can join.
