About the volunteering opportunity
YOOW means "Young and old for one world" - the name says it all and therefore people of all ages can feel equally welcome here. Whether parallel to training, starting a career between studying and working, or from the experience of a longer working life: you can find a job with us or create one yourself.
Together with the Chiuno NGO, YOOW e.V. has been building the Chiuno Cultural Center in Malawi since 2018. It offers surrounding communities access to education, medical care and professional development. On-site teaching is already happening during the completion phase (until 2028). You can find out more about us and the project on our homepage.

Your Tasks
Our project work for and in Malawi is becoming more and more extensive. We are therefore looking for committed people like you who want to make an effective contribution. Whether as a volunteer or as an intern - we offer a wide range of opportunities to get involved, tailored to your interests, needs and available time:
- social media work and homepage support for fundraising appeals, funding partner acquisition and outreach marketing on existing channels or building a profile on new platforms (X, LinkedIn, etc.)
- Project work remotely or in Berlin: writing funding applications and accounting for funding, communicating with funding partners and writing pitches, travel organization
- Work on site in Malawi: building kindergarten and school, well construction, school scholarships, medical aid
Do you have any other ideas? We are open to your interests and learning aspirations.
We also issue an internship certificate for interns. The scope and length of the internship (as well as volunteering) can be agreed individually.
Please get in touch if you are interested or if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!

YOOW e.V. - Young and Old for One World
Young and old for one world... for the benefit of the disadvantaged. After ten years of development cooperation in Sierra Leone and four years of refugee work in Berlin, our focus has been on Malawi since 2018. We are currently working on the construction of a kindergarten, a school, educational workshops especially for women who want to set up their own independent existence, a doctor's house and a canteen for school meals with teaching and distribution of varied food from our own permaculture.
