Abstract: Abstract Jonas Schumacher founded the Germany-based non-profit organisation Masifunde Bildungsförderung e.V. that coordinates a nationwide network of expatriate volunteers. He lives in South Africa, where Masifunde Learner Development NPC works with more than 100 employees at three sites reaching daily over 1000 children and youth with holistic education programmes. We talk about clash of cultures arising from different expectations, behavioural standards, deep-rooted stereotypes, unfeasible constellations, and how to cope with all that.
