About this project

We are the association Tansania - Zukunft durch Sonne, consisting of students and teachers of the rbz Steinburg in Itzehoe.
Sustainable development aid for Tanzania - that is our mission, which we have been successfully pursuing since 2009.

What do we do?
Our work is based on the actual needs on the ground. This means that the locals tell us what is really lacking in order to improve living conditions in the long term. One of the biggest areas is education.
What we take for granted is lacking in Tanzania: lighted classrooms, a sink to clean the blackboard, and decent toilets. To invest in education, Tanzania lacks money and know-how.
We bring the know-how with us: As students and teachers of very different professions. But we are also dependent on donations to finance the aid.
What have we already achieved?
We have installed solar panels on the roofs of KIUMAKO School and Kiumo VTC, which provide reliable light for learning and guarantee the operation of the school computers. We have trained students in first aid procedures.
We installed a system that collects rainwater and turns it into clean drinking water. We also expanded the sanitary facilities and the school kitchen and connected them to the cistern. In addition, we have learned a lot about the cultures through exchanges with the locals.
What do we need money for?
The aim of the project is to provide technical development assistance at a secondary school in Tanzania, the Kiumako Secondary School. There are currently around 120 pupils at the partner school. In 2014, we built a cistern at the school, and since then the school has undergone major structural expansion. So far, none of the building extensions have been connected to the existing cistern. The existing installations cannot guarantee the water supply required for hygiene in the building extensions. Our project goal for 2025 is to expand the school's water supply in such a way that the problem described above is solved. In addition to these things, we also aim to maintain the classrooms and the electrical systems. In addition to the technical endeavours, intercultural encounter projects are planned for our joint work on site. The aim is to create bonds between Tanzanian and German pupils and overcome cultural barriers. The facilities and learning content will be planned in Itzehoe, Steinburg district, and implemented in Mwika, Tanzania. The local partner is the Kiumako Secondary School and the Rafiki association from Kiel in Germany.
