"If we become ever more diverse, we must work harder to unite around our common values and our common humanity. We must work harder to overcome our differences in our hearts and in our laws." – President Clinton''
. Executive Summary:
Four years to go before the 2015 deadline for having the people living in object poverty Africa remain the only region of the world that risks not meeting most Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by that time notes a communiqué by Global to Action Plan (GAP Africa) in commemoration of the 2009 women’s day. The communiqué goes on to ask the civic community in such developing countries like Tanzania to critically evaluate how effective they have been at pressuring their government to adopt appropriate policies like gender equality, empowerment of women and children right, rule of law transparency and responsiveness to the demand of their citizen.
Kamachumu Environment Care Association (KECA) is making this early because it would like to join Tanzania government to decrease a situation when comes 2015 much progress should be made to achieve the MDGs and therefore not breaking the MDGs makes to women and children. As Tanzania preparing for celebration of 50 years of independence bid to establish the extent which government are currently adhering to good governance principles including Organizational and social accountability, with the society will embark on self assessments for the community to establish what extent the society across Muleba district in Kagera region are fairing in terms of governance and gender equality. Poverty, trade and economic issues are very much related to women’s rights issues due to the impacts they can have. Tackling these issues as well also helps to tackle women’s rights issues. And, helps tackle poverty-related issues. This then also affects children especially girls, which makes the dire situation even worse in Tanzania.
In some places claims are made that women’s rights will be respected more, yet policies are sometimes not changed enough—or at all—thus still undermining the rights of women. It is still very difficult for the women to stand for leadership or get the financial resources required to buy equipment etc, as many societies still do not accept, or realize, that there is a change in the “traditional” roles. People in Kagera region like any other people in Tanzania and Africa, they have developed over centuries to this behavior and impact to women, exploration of a racial or national minds takes time, but it should be done slowly by education and its something that can be solved. And yet beyond it there is an inescapable fact that soon there will be a balance between men and women. That is a fight for women life, that is, for the life of every Tanzanian. On the nature of the people, and geography you can’t blame the people but KECA collaborating with the people is take a step for the responsibility.
3. Introduction
The United Republic of Tanzania with a population of approximately over 40 million . It contains a total area of 945,087 sq km (364,900 sq mi), including 59,050 sq km (22,799 sq mi) of inland water. The per capital income as per 2010 government report is $400 per year. The republic consisting of Tanganyika and Zanzibar archipelago, whose main Islands is Unguja and Pemba. The union is headed by a President, who is also head of government. The unicameral legislative body is the National Assembly (parliament). Zanzibar although integrated into the union governmental and party structure has its own presidency system and legislature and exercises considerable self-government. Tanzania like other countries south of Sahara is facing a lot of challenge about democracy, rights and justice facing the women and children. Women and children’s rights around the world are an important indicator of understanding global well-being. Many may think that women’s rights are only an issue in countries where religion is law. Or even worse, some may think this is no longer an issue at all. Take this example; women do two-thirds of the world’s work, receive 10 percent of the world’s income and own 1 percent of the means of production. You would think that as time goes on, there would be more equality between men and women. Unfortunately, movements are moving in the other direction and in turn are that it isn’t easy to change tradition overnight.
A report from Human right watch also describes how; in some places claims are made that women’s rights will be respected more, yet policies are sometimes not changed enough—or at all—thus still undermining the rights of women. In some patriarchal societies, religion or tradition can be used as a barrier for equal rights. But not under the Women’s .Convention to protect women from discrimination and violence such as rape and female genital mutilation. Amnesty International points out.
This is a big reason why KECA intended fully to join hands with other stake holders into this project starting with Muleba district in Kagera region where like other places in Tanzania the women and children’s (girls) right in the area is a big challenge in Tanzania.
Our expertise in this project illustrate that we will be astonished by this project and the owner will be the children (girls) and the community of the area it takes place. Almost all leaders and members of this association born in the village when the world was still natural, traditional and culture takes place and the women and children especial girls treated as second class citizen. Our parents and grand parents were happy for this traditional aspect but when it comes to human right it’s completely a tragedy. Our experience starts there so now we realize that the democracy, rights and empowerment for women and children especially girls protection is essential and must sustain. Gender equality and protection of women and children is a necessity to everyone. Sending girls to school it’s not a matter of choice is one of their rights. We send our request to you to tackle on our following goals and objectives.
Goals and Objectives:
Goal 1.

and live full and productive lives, but will better the lives of children, families
and countries as well.
Objective 2. To increase the knowledge of girls’ equal rights and influence
in the key decisions that shape their lives and those must be enhanced in
distinct field: the household, the workplace and the political sphere
