Project Phase 6 weeks: Babati is a small town resting on the slopes of the Great Rift Valley, near to Lake Manyara in Tanzania. The main aim is to improve the education facilities for the community and our work focuses on building schools, classrooms and libraries as well as lots of painting, football games and the chance to work with children in the local schools. The Tanzania Schools and Community Development Project is a unique opportunity to experience Tanzanian village life by directly helping rural villages that are trying to improve the livelihoods and future of their village members.
