Why South Africa ?
● Wanted to visit a country
in Africa aside from
Ethiopia
● South Africa was the only
option available with
CIEE
● I wanted to do grassroots
work and not just in
some office in DC
Why Africa Unite ?
● Last minute blessing with
AU
● I chose it because of the
human rights work I saw
on the website
● To help me gain
intercultural
communication skills
with people from
different backgrounds

Recommendations
● Making interns create more
fundraising events just like 30
seconds.
● Communication
● Creating a cloud or online drive
where information can be
accessed for interns
● More on the ground work for
interns … *depending on the
season
● Intern team building
opportunities outside of office
