#344030	UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women	Tanzania Women Cross-Party Platform	Multi-Sector - GBV Programming Tanzania Women Cross-Party Platform is primarily committed to engage in advocating for meaningful inclusion of women in politics and governance position in Tanzania. The commitment to specifically work on Girls and Women with disability is prompted by the fact that they are not considered as special group and therefore subject them to double violence compared with women without disability. It is estimated that 16% of the world population is composed of people with disability, while 80% of them are found in the World South in which Tanzania is included. (UN Women). In Tanzania more than 3.3 million people are estimated to live with a disability. It is also depicted that Women have higher disability rates with 7.8% of the country's total population estimated to be women with disabilities against 5.7% men. Tanzania is implementing laws and policies. Election violence tends to disproportionately affect women than men worldwide. While it is true that both men and women may be victims of election violence, the form of violence that women encounter is distinctively different from that of men, and in turn, tends to jeopardize women’s political participation. This study sets out to investigate the barriers that women face in political participation in the form of violence against women in elections (VAW-E) as candidates, as well as voters and propose actions and interventions to reduce and eliminate the identified barriers. In Tanzania, a report on the Mapping and Analysis of 2010 Election-Related Incidents of Violence (2011) shows that compared to previous elections, three quarters of respondents (66.8 percent) said the 2010 elections were either very violent or violent especially during the vote counting process and the declaration of results (UDSM 2011:17). Yet, this study did not use gender-based definition of the election violence to capture the magnitude of the VAW-E in Tanzanian elections. However, the observed violence during the 2010 general elections provides an indication that incidents of violence against women did take place but were not systematically uncovered using conventional methods of election observation and monitoring, It is evident that no analysis that was done to depict the plight of girls and women with disability in that situation. Prevalence of violence against women in elections (VAW-E) during the 2015 general elections in Tanzania. 52% of women reached out by T-WCP monitoring reported spousal violence and 53% of women reported refraining from voting due to fear of violence, lack of registration, or pressure from spouses. Out of 110 appointed women MP special seats, there are only two women with disability evidencing marginalisation and exclusion. Tanzania has adopted and implementing a number of laws, policies and standards pertaining to people with disabilities, including their rights to protective and decent work, vacation training and basic services. Unfortunately, despite the obligations as stipulated in 1977 Constitution and its amendments prohibit discrimination against persons with disabilities, in practice and especially in the political and leadership sphere, there is no policy or guidelines developed to ensure inclusion of women and girls with disability in politics and governance structure. It is therefore the Goal of this project to advocate for creation of safe and inclusive political landscape that empowers Tanzanian Girls and Women survivors of violence and those at risk of intersectional GBV including women and girls with disability to engage in political processes without fear of violence or exclusion. This project addresses the critical issue of violence against women and girls (VAWG) in Tanzanian politics, with a particular emphasis on marginalized groups, including women and girls with disabilities, those facing racial discrimination, and women human rights defenders. The project will be implemented in 11 regions of Tanzania, which recorded significant incidences of violence against women during 2015 general elections. To achieve its goal, the project will employ targeted interventions, through Legal Advocacy, training on Gender-Based Violence and Political Participation; Capacity Building and Training; Media advocacy; Community Mobilization; Debate; Monitoring and Reporting Mechanisms. The expected results of this project include increased awareness on the importance of inclusive approach to political participation and specifically the rights to political participation of women and girls with disabilities. By focusing on the marginalized groups and employing these strategies, this project will contribute significantly in raising awareness on the importance of inclusive democracy and rights of Girls and Women with disability, and at the same time, contribute to the Tanzania national agenda of prevention and elimination of violence against women. This project is planned to be accomplished by utilising a total of US$ 200,000 within for implementation year.	Protection - Gender-Based Violence	32,045		Paid Contribution	Incoming
#344034	UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women	Voice of Encouragement Tanzania	Multi-Sector - GBV Programming The regions of Shinyanga and Mwanza in Tanzania are grappling with alarming rates of child sexual violence and early marriages, as evidenced by research from several sources. The World Bank (2022), Women Fund Tanzania Trust (2023), Hakielimu (2024), and the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children Tanzania (2022) highlight that Shinyanga reports the highest rates of child pregnancies at 34% and sexual violence at 59%, leading to over 500 girls dropping out of school annually. Mwanza also faces significant challenges, with a 37% prevalence of child sexual violence, especially in rural areas like Misungwi, Nyida, and Didia, where child marriage and sexual violence disproportionately impact the least educated and poorest girls. The Women Fund Tanzania Trust (2023) indicates that 61% of women aged 20-24 with no education and 39% with primary education were married or in a union by age 18, compared to only 5% of women with secondary education or higher. In Mwanza and Shinyanga, marriage is often perceived as a means to protect girls from poverty and relieve families' economic burdens. In response, the Government of Tanzania, in collaboration with partners such as UN Women, developed the second national plan of action to eliminate violence against women and children in May 2024. Despite ongoing efforts by several actors, including Tanzania’s second National Plan of Action to eliminate violence against women and children (2024/2025-2028/2029). There remains a critical gap in enforcing the implementation of the NPA against VAWV in Tanzania, resources and focus gap specifically in Nyida, Didia, and Misungwi administrative wards of Shinyanga and Mwanza, where these issues remain alarmingly prevalent. Our project will not only support the implementation of this NPA against VAWC but also this project is designed to directly engage 1,540 adolescents and young girls under the age of 25, both girls living with disabilities (approximately 590 adolescents and young girls living with disabilities and 950 adolescents and young girls without disabilities), and a total of 200 duty bearers. Indirectly, it aims to reach 2,600 adolescents and young girls and 1,000 boys in the Nyida, Didia, and Misungwi wards across two regions namely Shinyanga and Mwanza region. The project aims to employ a human-centered approach: All activities including inclusive Workshops are meant to be organized in an accessible manner such as venues that meet the needs of girls with various disabilities, for instance, venue or school spaces with ramps, or venue with elevators, and accessible restrooms. 1. Conduct 36 inclusive workshops at 9 selected schools on girls's fundamental rights,financial literacy and life skills. 2. Provide quality survivor-centered mental health and reproductive health support services in 9 selected schools. These clinics visit each of the three wards quarterly and aim to reach approximately 1,270 adolescents and young girls over the course of the project. The clinics will offer accessible and confidential sexual and reproductive health services. 3. Establish 9 girls chainbreakers clubs at 9 selected schools (3 clubs in each ward) 4. Organize bi-annual mentorship and coaching sessions to 270 chainbreakers members. 5. Facilitate 16 community dialogues (4 each year) advocating for the protection and prevention of child abuse and violence targeting 200 duty bearers. A total of 200 participants, including 40 local authorities, 80 teachers, 40 media and journalists, and other 40 key actors, police gender desk office, social welfare, and health providers. 6. Conduct four physical educational campaign (one per year). 7. Conduct five online educational campaigns by girl chain breaker clubs. Conduct five online educational campaigns and one physical each year in the 9 selected schools, involving a total of 3,600 students. Overall goal: To create a safer, more equitable environment where a total of 1,540 most vulnerable and marginalized adolescent girls both living with disabilities and without in Shinyanga and Mwanza region can thrive, supported by behavior change, enhanced community support, and access to tailored services by October 2028. Expected Outcomes 1. 1,540 adolescent girls (including 590 with disabilities) survivors of violence and those at risk of intersectional GBV are empowered through improved resources, skills and capacities to protect themselves from violence and prevent VAW/G.. 2.
