• Develop and support patient-focused support groups.
• Assist in monitoring and evaluation of Tshemba’s existing public health projects.
• Provide strategic guidance to strengthen and expand public health initiatives.

Requirements:

• Minimum of three years’ experience in a public health setting, including experience training community-based health personnel.
• Time commitment as a volunteer:
• South African public health specialists: Minimum two months
• International public health specialists: Minimum three months

Accommodation for Tshemba Volunteers

As a Tshemba volunteer, you will receive free accommodation in our Volunteer Lodge, located within the Moditlo Private Game Reserve near Hoedspruit. While transport and food costs are the responsibility of volunteers, your stay in this tranquil setting offers a safe, comfortable, and rejuvenating environment.

The Lodge serves as a welcoming retreat where healthcare professionals can unwind after a demanding day, exchange ideas, and collaborate on innovative healthcare solutions. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, volunteers connect with like-minded peers from around the world, fostering both professional growth and personal renewal.

Past volunteers frequently describe their time with Tshemba as transformative, reigniting their passion for medicine and reinforcing their commitment to healthcare.
