Very memorable time. One participant said she came to the training with zero power and leaves with 80% power!

A little glimpse of our recent field visit in Mpwapwa, Dodoma. From school visits and community conversations to plenty of moments in between, here’s what happens when the CDF team takes the work to the field. Press play. You might even spot yourself. 😊😁

We love visitors! And today, we had girls from @Plan_tanzana with us for Girls Take Over. And yes, the girls are here to ask questions, learn what CDF actually does, and get a closer look at the work that happens behind the scenes in advancing children’s rights in Tanzania.💪

In Tanzania, adolescent girls in Mpwapwa District, Dodoma, know how to recognise violence, report it safely and protect themselves and their peers. Our partner @cdftz brought girls from two secondary schools together for a two-day programme on personal safety, emotional intelligence and rights. For these girls, understanding their rights has become a first step in feeling more confident to seek help when they need it and advocate for positive change in and outside their schools. Investing in girls’ rights makes whole communities safer. 💫

Kulinda utu wa mtoto kunahitaji kuwafikia na kuwashirikisha wanaume na wavulana pale walipo, hata kwenye vijiwe vya kahawa. Kitunda, Dar es Salaam, Cassian anajifunza namna ya kulinda haki za mtoto, kuanzia katika familia yake. Mabadiliko huanza tunapokuchukua hatua pamoja!

Did you know that if all girls completed secondary education, child marriage could decrease by 66%? (UNICEF, 2022). It is time to take action. Let us work together to ensure that every girl stays in school and is protected from child marriage.
