Your Generosity Can Empower Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW) in Tanzania

Join us in our mission to amplify the voices of Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW) in Tanzania and help them break free from the shackles of violence, discrimination, and harmful cultural practices.

The Challenges Faced by AGYW in Tanzania

AGYW in Tanzania face a multitude of challenges, including:

• Limited access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities
• Disproportionate exposure to violence, with 61% of women in Simiyu, Mara, and Shinyanga experiencing physical violence and 23% experiencing sexual violence
• Deep-rooted gender inequality and harmful cultural norms, including female genital mutilation (FGM)

Our Empowering Initiative

Our comprehensive program is addressing these challenges head-on by:

• Amplifying AGYW Voices: Providing platforms for AGYW to share their experiences, advocate for their rights, and make their voices heard.
• Building Capacity: Equipping AGYW with leadership, advocacy, and SRHR knowledge and skills to become powerful agents of change.
• Promoting Community Mobilization: Engaging communities to dismantle harmful norms, promote gender equality, and create a supportive environment for AGYW.
• Strengthening Social Accountability: Empowering AGYW to hold their leaders accountable for providing quality services and upholding their rights.
