Country Profile 1.1 Geographical Presentation1 Introduction Tanzania, officially United Republic of Tanzania, republic, south-eastern Africa, bordered on the north by Lake Victoria and Uganda, on the north-east by Kenya, on the east by the Indian Ocean, on the south by Mozambique, Lake Malawi, and Malawi, on the south-west by Zambia, and on the west by Lake Tanganyika, Burundi, and Rwanda. The country includes the islands of Zanzibar and Pemba, and other offshore islands in the Indian Ocean. The total area of Tanzania is 945,100 sq km (364,900 sq mi), of which 942,453 sq km (363,882 sq mi) is on the mainland. The capital of Tanzania is Dodoma, located in the centre of the country and the place where the National Assembly meets. The former capital of the country was Dar es Salaam, located on the coast. Land and resources The landscape of mainland Tanzania is generally flat and low along the coast, but a plateau at an average altitude of about 1,220 m (4,000 ft) constitutes the greater part of the country. Isolated mountain groups rise in the north-east and south-west. The volcanic Mount Kilimanjaro (5,892 m/19,330 ft), the highest mountain in Africa, is situated near the north-eastern border with Kenya. Zanzibar, separated from the coast of the mainland by a channel some 32 km (20 mi) wide, is about 90 km (55 mi) long, and covers an area of approximately 1,650 sq km (637 sq mi). It is the largest coral island off the coast of Africa. Pemba, some 40 km (25 mi) north-west of Zanzibar, is about 68 km (42 mi) long, and has an area of approximately 984 sq km (380 sq mi). Both Zanzibar and Pemba are mostly low-lying. Rivers and Lakes Three of the great lakes of Africa lie on the borders of Tanzania and partially within it. Lake Tanganyika lies on the western border, Lake Victoria on the north-west, and Lake Malawi on the south-west. Lakes Malawi and Tanganyika lie in the Rift Valley, a tremendous geological fault system extending from the Middle East to Mozambique. Climate Tanzania’s climate is varied and controlled largely by altitude and distance from the sea. On the coastal plain of mainland Tanzania, the climate is tropical, being hot and humid. Temperatures average 26.7° C (80° F) and rainfall varies from 1,016 to 1,930 mm (40 to 76 in). The inland plateau is hot and dry, with rainfall averaging from 508 to 762 mm (20 to 30 in). The semi-temperate highlands in the south-west are wetter. The climate on the islands is generally tropical, but the heat is tempered by a sea breeze throughout the year. The annual maximum and minimum mean temperatures for the city of Zanzibar are 29.2° C (84.5° F) and 24.7° C (76.5° F) respectively; for Wete in Pemba, they are 30.3° C (86.5° F) and 24.5° C (76.1° F) respectively. 1 Taken on June 10th, 2011 from http://ntwk.esaanet.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=166:demography-of- tanzania&catid=53:demographics-&directory=99 Country Fact Sheet Tanzania 9 Natural Resources Diamonds and gold are currently the most important of the minerals being exploited in Tanzania. Large deposits of coal and iron ore exist in the southern region, but mining operates on a small scale only. There are plans to exploit natural gas deposits found in the Songo Songo island area, south-east of Dar es Salaam. Forestland constitutes one of the most substantial natural resources of the country. Forests cover 43.9 per cent (2000) of Tanzania, mainly in the south and west-central areas. Among the many hardwoods found are mahogany and camphorwood. Plants and Animals Tanzania’s wildlife includes almost all the large African mammals, notably: antelope, zebra, elephant, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, giraffe, lion, leopard, cheetah, and monkey. The country has a number of game reserves and national parks, including the famous Serengeti National Park, the Ruaha National Park, the Selous Game Reserve, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, located in the broad crater of an extinct volcano and providing a unique wildlife habitat.

  • Education in Tanzania
    Education in Tanzania “Kitanda usichokilalia humjui kunguni wake” You Cannot Know The Bugs Of A Bed Until You Have Laid Upon It Marie Yahl 1 “Mwana unleavyo ndivyo akuavo” As you Bring A Child Up, So He Will Be Imagine you are in grade school. You are about 12-13 years old, have just completed your primary education, and are about to transition into a new and exciting period of your life as you enter secondary school or high school if you are a student from the United States. You will be going to a new school and do not know what to expect, you are feeling nervous excitement. It is your first day of school and to your surprise, your classes are taught in a completely different language! You’ve had some lessons in this foreign language, but you certainly do not speak it, nor can you read it. What would you do in this situation and who could you turn to for help? Imagine how limited your opportunities would be if your education ended abruptly at the high school level because of a language barrier. This is your reality if you are a student in the Tanzanian education system. A system set up only for wealthy children to succeed and less than 30% of average students to achieve secondary education. The education system in Tanzania serves primarily the wealthy population and the large majority of Tanzanian citizens achieve at best the mandatory primary education level. The core problem with the education system in Tanzania is that children are set up to fail as they transition from primary school to secondary school, as secondary school is taught in English.

  • “I Had a Dream to Finish School” Barriers to Secondary Education in Tanzania WATCH Summary and Key Recommendations
    HUMAN RIGHTS “I Had a Dream to Finish School” Barriers to Secondary Education in Tanzania WATCH Summary anD KEy rEcommEnDaTIonS HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH | FEBRUARY I liked to study so that I could have a wide mind. There was nothing I didn’t like [to study]. I had a dream to finish school and go to college, graduate, and work as an accountant. Like millions of adolescents in Tanzania, Imani, 20, from Mwanza, a region in northwestern Tanzania bordering Lake Victoria, wanted to study as much as she could so that she could graduate, find a job, and support herself and her family. From the age of 14, when she entered secondary school, she traveled more than an hour and a half every morning to get to school: I was very tired by the time I got to school. I started arriving late all the time. When I would arrive late I would be punished. Imani’s plans changed when she was only 16 years old. She was sexually abused by her private tutor, a secondary school teacher whom her parents hired to teach her during the weekend. When Imani discovered she was pregnant, she informed the tutor. He disappeared. A nurse would carry out monthly pregnancy tests and check all girls at her school, but Imani skipped school on two occasions when the nurse conducted the tests. On the third month of her pregnancy, school officials found out she was pregnant. “My dream was shattered then,” she told Human Rights Watch. “I was expelled from school. I was expelled from [her sister’s] home, too.” Like many adolescent girls in Tanzania, Imani tried many ways to get back into education once she had her baby, who, at the time she spoke to Human Rights Watch, was three years old: I tried [to go back to school].
