Mapping of agricultural value chain opportunities at a secondary school in...
Laatste keer bijgewerkt op 13/11/2023
Stage in Uganda voor Universiteitstudenten
Stagejaar: 2024

The internship focuses on mapping out the entrepreneurial environments that one O-level and one community polytechnic school in Gulu are operating in, including the mapping of agricultural companies surrounding the wider school areas and the identification of major value chains with special attention for those offering the best opportunities for learning purposes in collaboration with the school and agripreneur. Depending on the specialisation of the intern this mapping exercise can result in a business model canvas for an enterprise that students or the school can run to learn relevant agriculture and entrepreneurship skills. Alternatively, it can result in a short module or training on agripreneurship for teachers to develop students’ skills in key innovations to succeed in the local environment; or a study and career guidance tool that informs students about the career options along the agriculture value chain

Stage in Uganda voor Hogeschoolstudenten, Universiteitstudenten
Stagejaar: 2023, 2024

In this research assignment  you will develop a recommended profile for role models who can offer career talks in secondary education and/or TVET – not only to interest young people in studies and careers in agriculture but especially for gender non-stereotypical and environmentally sustainable/friendly agri-businesses.

Possible research questions are:

  • What does evidence suggest about the characteristics and qualities of role models in relation to motivation and aspirations of young people regarding their study and career choices (within agri-preneurship education)?
  • What are young people’s perceptions about qualities and characteristics of role models? Who have been the role models who inspired young agri-preneurs to get engaged in gender non-stereotypical and/or green agri-enterprises? 
  • What profile should teachers and instructors use to identify local volunteers who can act as role models to inspire/motivate young people into agri-preneurship and especially green and gender non-stereotypical agri-work opportunities? What are the existing platforms and networks in which potential role models can be identified/contacted?
  • How can teachers best attract possible role models who fit the profile to engage in agriculture/entrepreneurship education? What are the role models considerations in volunteering their time and effort?
  • How can educators, policy makers and researchers further improve the utilisation of role models in secondary education and TVET towards green study and career trajectories whilst combatting gender barriers?

Laatste keer bijgewerkt op 31/08/2023
Stage in Zambia voor Hogeschoolstudenten
Stagejaar: 2024

As an intern, you will work as a co-teacher to the class teacher in a preschool to support and enhance the use of the learning through play methodology for emergent literacy skills. You will do this with reference to existing and leading documents in the Zambian school system, such as the ECE syllabus, the Early Learning Development Standards for Zambia (ELDS), the Emergent Literacy Manual and the iCLAP observation tool. Even though teaching at ECE level uses a local Zambian language, you will be able to interact easily with the children, using English and a basic set of phrases in the local language, working alongside the class teacher and (in some cases) local Zambian student teachers, who assist with translations. You will use your creativity and initiative to develop and make teaching and learning materials from low cost or no cost materials (Teaching and Learning Using Locally Available Resources or TALULAR). 

Requirements: 
• Bachelor of early childhood education.
• Good knowledge of English necessary. Note that actual teaching at ECE level is done in a local Zambian language. However, by working with the class teacher and others, there should not be major communication problems.
• The interns take initiative, are creative and can work independently. The VVOB Country office is in Lusaka.
• Minimum 3 months.
