Our country has different cultural beliefs and norms of which it might be best for our volunteers to learn and see how we live here in Malawi.
  
  From our team and NGO in general, volunteers will learn our local languages for example (Tumbuka, highly spoken in the northern region, Chichewa, which is our national local language ) They will also learn different cultural activities and dances from many tribes that are here in Malawi, we talk to Tonga,Ngoni,Tumbuka .
