Experience life through the eyes of Tanzanian women and gain an intimate understanding of the daily lives and needs of diverse women in a developing nation. Aided by an interpreter, you'll have a chance to get to know seminomadic Maasai women, as well as members of the baraka Women’s Cooperative and the subsistence farming Iraq people of rural Tanzania. This rewarding experience will take place against a backdrop of stunning scenery, from bustling villages on the slopes of Mount Meru to the wilderness of the great Serengeti Plains and National Park, home to lions, elephants, zebra, and wildebeests.
