Waache Wasome Let Them Learn Tanzania | Y2 Q3 Progress Report 3 Executive Summary World Education Inc.’s Bantwana Initiative (WEI/Bantwana) is pleased to submit this Year 2 Quarter 3 (Y2 Q3) Progress Report for the Waache Wasome project in Tanzania. This report covers the period April 1-June 30, 2018. Waache Wasome (Let Them Learn) is a five-year project funded by USAID which aims to increase adolescent girls’ participation and retention in secondary school. The project’s efforts are rooted in the principle of empowering girls to create and achieve goals for their future, while addressing the social/gender norms, economic barriers, and violence that constrain their ability to remain and excel in school. This quarter WEI/Bantwana made significant progress toward achieving milestones across all objectives. The WEI/Bantwana team, in collaboration with LGAs, established 13 new Protect Our Youth (POY) Clubs, trained an additional 38 adults (50% female) in the POY Matron/Patron training workshop, and trained an additional 132 students (51% female) in the Peer Education training workshop. This brings the total number of POY Clubs to 143 (99% of planned), the total number of trained Matrons/Patrons to 72 (100% of planned), and the total number of trained Peer Leaders to 253 (88% of planned). The WEI/Bantwana team, in collaboration with the Karatu Community Development Officer, continued to monitor and support 28 Livelihood Improvement for Mothers and Caregivers of Adolescents (LIMCA) groups. The 28 groups are comprised of 697 members (87% female) and have accumulated 89,358,000 TZS in savings. These savings have been revolving and earning interest in micro-loans to the group members, with a total of 17,549,600 TZS in loans circulating this quarter, and the total cumulative value of loans issued is 148,298,500 TZS. With support from WEI/Bantwana, three LIMCA groups opted to register with the Karatu District Council, which will enable them to benefit from additional government assistance including favorable “soft loans”. This quarter, WEI/Bantwana also provided business skills training to 124 LIMCA members using the “Selling Made Simple” curriculum and supported six LIMCA groups to participate in a carpet making training workshop. Additionally, the WEI/Bantwana team, in collaboration with LGAs, identified 108 Economic Empowerment Volunteers (94% female) who will support new LIMCA groups in the communities and neighborhoods related to the 30 Phase I schools. This quarter WEI/Bantwana trained all the 53 Economic Empowerment Volunteers (EEVs) in Karatu District, with the remaining district EEV training planned for next quarter. During this reporting period, WEI/Bantwana conducted “lunch and learn” sessions with 110 teachers and head teachers from the six pilot schools and oriented 25 teachers as well as two LGAs on documenting cases of GBV in their respective schools. The “lunch and learn” sessions are an important post-training reinforcement tool for the School-Related Gender-Based Violence (SRGBV) teacher training conducted in previous quarters. The “lunch and learn sessions” provide an opportunity for teachers and head teachers to learn how to use the SRGBV case log, discuss SRGBV issues in their schools, and work collectively to address these issues. In addition, WEI/Bantwana worked with LGAs to identify District Master Trainers (DMTs) who will be trained to deliver the SRGBV training to teachers across the 30 schools beginning in Q4. WEI/Bantwana also convened a meeting with LGAs and regional authorities to discuss the Early Warning System (EWS) that is planned for piloting in Q4. The EWS will provide a means of early identification for students at high Waache Wasome Let Them Learn Tanzania | Y2 Q3 Progress Report 4 risk of dropping out. During the meeting, WEI/Bantwana and the LGAs agreed that they would work collaboratively to design a system that leveraged and strengthened existing systems and structures rather than creating a parallel, project dependent system. WEI/Bantwana made progress towards setting up the Out of School Study Groups (OSSG) to build the protective assets of girls who already dropped out of school and cannot return. In collaboration with LGAs in Karatu District Council, WEI/Bantwana identified 22 out of school adolescents for enrollment in OSSG. Of the 22 girls identified, more than half were forced to drop out of school due to unwanted pregnancy. Part of the OSSG program includes the delivery of critical early childhood stimulation materials to help the young mothers better care for their children during the critical first 1000 days. During this quarter, WEI/Bantwana compiled ECS materials that will be used in the OSSG sessions. One of the most notable achievements that begin this quarter (and will continue into next quarter) is obtaining the endorsement of the MoHCDGEC for the rolling out of Waache Wasome’s SRGBV teacher training and POY Club materials. During this reporting period, WEI/Bantwana participated in a technical meeting in Dodoma to present the materials to the MoHCDGEC Management Team to show their relevance for the implementation of the National Plan of Action to End Violence Against Women and Children (NPA-VAWC/2017-2022). USAID also sent a representative

  • Local Knowledge of Soils Among the Iraqw in Selected Villages in Mbulu and Karatu Districts: Implications for Research Interventions
    Mwaseba D. et al.: Local knowledge of soils among the Iraqw in Mbulu 150 LOCAL KNOWLEDGE OF SOILS AMONG THE IRAQW IN SELECTED VILLAGES IN MBULU AND KARATU DISTRICTS: IMPLICATIONS FOR RESEARCH INTERVENTIONS Mwaseba1, D., Msanya1, B.M., Ole-Meiludie 2, D.J. and Massawe 3, A.W. 1Sokoine University of Agriculture, P. O. Box 3022, Morogoro, Tanzania 2 Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, TOSCA, P.O. Box 1056 Morogoro, Tanzania 3 Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, Rodent Control Centre, P.O. Box 3047 Morogoro, Tanzania ABSTRACT This article reports on some findings from an on-going study in seven villages in Mbulu and Karatu Districts. These are Kainam, Gunyoda and Moringa (Mbulu District) and Kambi ya Simba, Kilima Tembo, Rhotia Kati and Kansay (Karatu District). The selected villages are predominantly inhabited by the Iraqw who are Afroasiatic or Hamitic- Cushitic speaking people. They form 65% of the people in the two districts. Using a combination of Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) and formal surveys the study found that there is a wealth of knowledge with regard to soil classification in the area. On the whole farmers use various criteria to classify their soils that also guide land use decisions. However, reliance on local knowledge in the classification of soils, landforms and land use is more common with small-scale agriculture, wh ereas large-scale farmers particularly in Karatu District rely more on research recommendations communicated to them through the public extension service or by researchers themselves to improve productivity in the area. While acknowledging the wealth of local knowledge in the area, the study recommends for scientific research interventions in partnerships with the local people in order to address existing land use limitations.
