Our Summer School

The Foot2Afrika Summer School was initiated in 2016 and was started to test the educational approach of MYV as a pilot and runs trainings, which are hosted at MYV. While currently (2022) the actual MYV buildings still require more funds, the summer school offers trainings on basic business knowledge.

Development of the MYV training curriculum benefits from the experience of the summer school and both activities are considered for the detailed work of the ongoing building activities towards Moshi Youth Village.

We would like to thank:
Uhuru Hotel in Moshi, for providing a wonderful space for our first years of the Summer School
Förderverein DHBW Heidenheim and SEZ for funding Getting MYV Off the Ground – providing funds for final work, such as furniture, basic equipment and internet access, enabling the first Summer School on the premisses in 2022.

General Information

The Summer School runs in March or April each year.

The Foot2Afrika Summer School offers different 1-day trainings over a period of 2 weeks. It is targeting basic business skills, such as marketing, staff relations, grant and microfinance applications, financial planning or market research.

We are a German-Tanzanian trainer team with backgrounds in engineering, IT and business. We all have extended industry experience with different levels of vocational and academic training.
