“The best way of learning is by doing. Doing is also the only way of getting things done.”
Impact Projects
Impact Projects bring together the ambitious university students and real-life challenges. They bring together change-makers from two continents to solve local problems and work together for building a better future. All Impact Projects can be done either online, on-site or as a combination of these two.
There are two types of Impact Projects
Impact Internship +2 months
Impact Consultancy: shorter period of time
Organizations
Are you ready for welcoming skilled university students (mainly from the Nordics) to work on your team/ project pro bono? Your organization may be a startup, corporation, NGO or something else as long as its working for building a better future and making an impact.
Students
Take a chance on applying your academic knowledge into practice and work on meaningful projects that have a true positive impact. University students get university credits from Impact Internships.
Universities
Close the gap between the highly educated young people and real-life problems and provide truly international student- centrist learning experiences for your students in an easy way. Expand your university´s international network and integrate cross-continental collaboration to your university´s offering together with other Ambitious Africa partner universities and companies.
