Background

The new portfolio for Enabel Bilateral Cooperation Program in Tanzania 2023-2027 was approved end of June 2023 by the Belgian Minister of Development Cooperation, with a planned duration of 5 years (2023-2027) and an overall budget of 25 million euros. 

The general objective of the strategy has been defined as follows: “Young people especially young women, are empowered to thrive in a protective and gender-equal environment, to acquire education and skills, and to pursue decent work opportunities in Kigoma Region”.

The specific objective further specifies: “Girls and young women (14 to 29 years), in targeted districts of Kigoma, are empowered, access multiple conducive learning pathways and enjoy decent and green employment and entrepreneurship”.

The strategy 2023-2027 has initially been built around three main thematic pillars: secondary education and training opportunities; skills and entrepreneurship; a protective and gender-equal environment. For the period 2023-2027, Enabel developed an integrated approach fully focused on girls and young women through three results areas of the same holistic intervention as defined below:
 

• Result area 1 is focusing on secondary education for vulnerable youth with a special focus on girls.

• Result area 2 is dedicated to skills development and entrepreneurship, with the ambition to increase opportunities for decent employment of young people, specifically women, through skills development, entrepreneurship promotion and business development support.

• Result area 3 is focusing on supporting a protective and gender-equal environment. It will contribute to tackle the discriminatory social norms and structural barriers that girls and young women face in their family, in their community, in the educative and professional spheres, so that girls and young women benefit from the same chances to continue their education and seize increasing remunerative economic opportunities.

This position is linked to the Result area 1, and specifically to  improve learning achievement and prevent dropout because of failures at Form II and Form IV examinations, efforts need to be made to improve the quality of teaching and effectiveness of learning through investing in teachers, in their Continuing Professional Development (CPD), in didactic materials and tools and through creating opportunities for students to access a wider variety of learning materials, both physical and online.
