Weltwärts for international understanding and climate protection
The German-Tanzanian Partnership (DTP) works in Tanzania in the field of international understanding and climate protection. To this end, it cooperates with its main partner in Tanzania, the NGO Action for Community Care (ACC). Together with ACC, the DTP accompanies the 16 German weltwärts volunteers in Tanzania each year as well as the five Tanzanian weltwärts volunteers in Hamburg, Lüneburg and Berlin. ACC and DTP exchange information intensively and develop the programs further.
In Dar es Salaam, 2 DTP volunteers will be working with the NGO Tanzania Landscape Restoration Organization (TaLRO) for 12 months every year from summer 2025. TaLRO’s main activity is to restore deforested and degraded areas. The NGO offers baseline surveys, runs a tree nursery, restores fallow land and forests, trains communities in nature conservation and develops nature-friendly income opportunities with them. The NGO was founded in 2019 by a group of Tanzanian conservationists.
Together with the German-Tanzanian Partnership, ACC has been supporting the 16 annual German volunteers in Tanzania and the five Tanzanian volunteers in Hamburg, Lüneburg and Berlin since 2020.
The DTP works with the NGO Tanzania Renewable Energy Association (TAREA) in Dar es Salaam by training one Tanzanian each year for 12 months in the field of renewable energy. This supports TAREA in its work and subsequently makes it easier for the Tanzanian to start a career, primarily in the field of renewable energies in Tanzania.
