Our Motivation & Principles
The Tanzanian Context & Our Programs
The challenges faced by women and girls in East Africa and Tanzania are well-documented. Studies such as “The State of the World’s Children 2007; The Double Dividend of Gender Equality, New York, 2006” as well as the Beijing +20 Report by CSOs and the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania have all highlighted the gender disparities that exist in the region. These disparities are evident in all areas of life, from education and employment to health and political participation.
The SASA Foundation is motivated by the understanding that women lack behind in particular developmental areas. These include:
These factors exacerbate women’s deprivation, stagnate self-determination, and limit socio-economic progress. The SASA Foundation is committed to addressing these challenges by empowering women and girls to transform socio-economic systems in their families and communities. Our programs are based on the following principles:
The SASA Foundation is working to create a world where all women and girls have the opportunity to reach their full potential. We believe that when women are empowered, they can transform their families, communities, and society at large.
We are delighted to introduce our dedicated and hardworking team, which plays a crucial role in making SASA thrive and empowering women to realise their full potential.
