Women Level up Initiative

Ndoto Hai Campaign

As of 2022, nearly 26 million people in Tanzania lived in extreme poverty, with the poverty threshold at 1.90 U.S. dollars a day. This gives poverty credit to be the obstacle to many development possibilities among the people. On the other hand, it feels so sad that great talents, Ideas and innovators from childhood in our country mostly ends up unused or completely undiscovered for the reason such as financial instability, or lacking exposure to right opportunities, places and initiatives to help discover and nurture them, and women and children are the most vulnerable groups when it comes to results of poverty. Also, most girls and women lack the confidence and freedom to engage in formal education, entrepreneurship and creativity activities because of poverty which leads to early marriages and gender violence, reasons that hinder the possibility of them reaching their big dreams.

The Ndoto Hai (Dreams alive) under the Women level Up Initiative is a fundraiser to support campaign aimed at helping vulnerable and marginalized women to achieve their dreams through economic support and business mentorship. Ndoto Hai is a catalyst for women’s inclusive initiatives to support women and fight back against poor traditions that still deny women various opportunities such as the right of freedom of ownership, to have representation in different leadership positions, and going for formal and informal educational opportunities. Supporting a woman in business aims to bring them out of the kitchen, get to work and have a mission.

On the other hand, Improving science learning and supporting laboratory equipment in secondary schools, promoting computer literacy, digital learning, and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) to school children. STEM-based education teaches children more than science and mathematics concepts. The focus on hands-on learning with real-world applications helps develop a variety of skill sets, including creativity and 21st-century skills.

21st-century skills include media and technology literacy, productivity, social skills, communication, flexibility, and initiative. Other skills attained through STEM education include problem-solving, critical thinking, creativity, curiosity, decision-making, leadership, entrepreneurship, acceptance of failure, and more. Regardless of the future career path considered by these children, these skill sets go a long way toward preparing them to be innovative.
