Zambezi Animal Welfare Services

The Zambezi Animal Welfare Services (ZAWS) was set up in 2014 by a group of friends keen to improve the welfare of domestic animals – mainly dogs and cats – in the Livingstone area. Their aims are to reduce the populations of feral dogs and cats, have a healthier, controlled population of owned dogs and cats, and to educate the local population on animal welfare, dog bite avoidance, and on “one health” concepts – the concept that human health, animal health, and environmental health are all closely linked and co-dependent.

The organization’s activities to date include mass vaccination and veterinary treatment outreaches in urban and rural areas, spray and neuter campaigns, educational visits to schools and clubs.

What to expect as an intern?

Your internship begins with assisting ZAWS team members with ongoing projects and daily
operation tasks, which gives you time to learn about the ins-and-outs of the organization.
Gradually, you will be given more responsibilities to work on individual projects on your own.
ZAWS team members will provide you with some hands-on training, both in technical skills
and soft skills. You will receive guidance and feedback as well as supporting materials to
help you to complete assigned tasks as needed.

You’ll be a valuable part of this small organization where your internship can make a real
difference. So, if you are looking to contribute in a big way to a worthy cause, while learning
and brushing your skill-sets, this is your chance!
