Who is a Community Leader? Community leader path draws heavily from DOT’s legacy programs that prepare youth to act as community facilitators who deliver skills development to the more vulnerable. They are facilitators, communicators, and digitally-savvy community organizers who are passionate about creating real change in their own communities. This pathway enables advanced exploration of community needs and challenges. You are guided through a process of designing a solution to a community problem, as well as impacting your peers with our signature economic empowerment program ReachUp!, that empowers youth with entrepreneurship, digital literacy with the use of mobile technology, and livelihood skills. With this opportunity, DOT Tanzania is also looking to retain 35 outstanding young men and women from the program as community leaders with a contract from July - December, 2018.
