Youth in Tanzania have the greatest potential to solve their communities and the country’s biggest challenges.

 

Yet, most young people in Tanzania lack the opportunities to actualize their potential, create a positive impact and become changemakers. 

Barriers for Youth:

  • Rote education system and lack of quality education

  • Corporal punishment is used in the majority of schools and households

  • Limited to no mentorship and career guidance

  • Lack of critical learning opportunities such as critical thinking, project-based learning, and social-emotional learning

  • Limited community support and buy-in

  • Poor infrastructure and limited resources
