Celebrating a Legacy of Hope Through Action: UN Tanzania Honours Dr. Jane Goodall’s Enduring Impact

Partners, government leaders, youth advocates, and members of the conservation community gathered at the National Museum of Tanzania to honour the life and legacy of Dr. Jane Goodall, whose groundbreaking work in wildlife research and community-based conservation transformed humanity’s relationship with nature and inspired generations of environmental stewards.Held under the theme “Celebrating a Legacy of Hope through Action,” the memorial ceremony brought together representatives from the Government, the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI), development partners, diplomatic missions, and young leaders from the Roots & Shoots movement to reflect on a life devoted not only to science, but to service, compassion, and collective responsibility for the planet.Dr. Goodall’s journey began in Tanzania’s Gombe forests more than six decades ago, where her pioneering research on chimpanzees reshaped modern understanding of animal behaviour and challenged long-standing assumptions about the relationship between humans and the natural world. Over time, her work expanded beyond research to community engagement, youth empowerment, and global advocacy for conservation and sustainable development.Today, that legacy continues to shape both national and global efforts to protect biodiversity while improving livelihoods.Speaking at the ceremony, the United Nations Resident Coordinator, Ms. Susan Ngongi Namondo, emphasized the deep alignment between Dr. Goodall’s life’s work and the United Nations’ mission in Tanzania.“Dr. Jane Goodall showed the world that conservation and development are inseparable,” she noted. “Healthy ecosystems are the foundation of thriving communities. Her legacy reminds us that hope is not passive, it is something we create through action.”Across Tanzania, the United Nations works closely with the Government and partners to advance sustainable development, climate resilience, biodiversity protection, and youth empowerment in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These efforts reflect the very principles Dr. Goodall championed throughout her life: local solutions, community ownership, and the power of young people to lead change.A cornerstone of this shared vision is the longstanding partnership between the United Nations and the Roots & Shoots movement, the global youth programme founded by Dr. Goodall. Through this collaboration, young people across Tanzania are taking practical action to address environmental challenges in their communities.From tree planting and ecosystem restoration to environmental education and climate advocacy, Roots & Shoots members are contributing directly to Sustainable Development Goal 13 on Climate Action while building leadership skills and strengthening civic engagement.“At the United Nations in Tanzania, we are proud to partner with Roots & Shoots in mobilizing young people as champions for environmental stewardship,” Ms. Namondo said. “When young people plant trees or restore their local environment, they are not only protecting nature, they are building ownership, responsibility, and hope for the future.”Throughout the ceremony, tributes from family members, conservation leaders, government representatives, and youth advocates underscored the profound and lasting influence of Dr. Goodall’s work. A special poetry performance and stories of change from young Roots & Shoots members highlighted how her message continues to inspire new generations to take action locally while thinking globally. For many attendees, the event served not only as a moment of remembrance, but as a call to continue her work.As the climate crisis intensifies and biodiversity loss accelerates worldwide, Dr. Goodall’s example offers a clear path forward: partnership, persistence, and belief in the power of individuals to make a difference.Her philosophy that every action counts and every person matters remains especially relevant for Tanzania, a country rich in natural heritage and youthful energy.The United Nations reaffirmed its commitment to working alongside the Government of Tanzania, civil society, and development partners to protect the country’s ecosystems, strengthen resilience to climate change, and create opportunities for young people to shape a more sustainable future.Because, as Dr. Goodall often reminded the world, hope is not something we wait for, it is something we choose to create.And across Tanzania, that hope continues to grow.

Turning mud crabs into opportunity for women along Zanzibar’s coast

When visitors arrive at her crab farm in Bumbwini, Mafufuni, Mtuma Hamisi Haji sees it as more than a courtesy call. For her, it is a chance to learn, reflect and improve.“Whenever visitors come, it makes us happy,” she says. “It means we can talk, be corrected, and understand how to do things better.”Mtuma is a mother and an aquafarmer, and a member of Asalaam Alaykum, a local group engaged in aquaculture in Unguja. While group members also farm fish and keep bees, mud crab farming has become a key source of income for Mtuma and many women in her community.On her plot, more than 250 containers are arranged carefully, each holding crabs at different stages of growth. It is a system built gradually — through trial, error and, more recently, structured support. Turning potential into practiceFor years, crab farming in the area was informal. Farmers sold their harvest quickly, often without knowing how prices were determined.“We used to rush to sell,” Mtuma recalls. “Buyers would weigh the crabs and give us money, but we didn’t know the grades or the value. We had no choice.”That began to change under the Agriculture and Fisheries Development Programme (AFDP) 2021–2027, supported by the Government of Tanzania, the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and beneficiaries themselves. AFDP aims to strengthen inclusive food systems by improving productivity, building climate resilience and expanding market opportunities — with particular attention to women and youth.Through the programme, Mtuma and her fellow group members received training in improved mud crab farming practices, alongside starter support and basic infrastructure.“We were trained step by step,” she says. “We learned how to prepare the containers, how to observe growth, and how to manage the crabs properly.” Skills, confidence and incomeThe training helped farmers understand quality, timing and handling — knowledge that directly affects income.“Now, we don’t just sell because we are desperate,” Mtuma explains. “We check the crabs. We know which ones are ready and which are not.”For Mtuma, the results are tangible. Crab farming now helps her support her children and meet household and social responsibilities — things that once felt out of reach.“Without this project, I don’t know what I would have done,” she says. “Now, when there is a need, I can stand up and provide.”Her experience reflects a wider shift. Under AFDP, aquafarmers in Unguja and Pemba have been trained in improved mud crab farming techniques, with women making up a significant share of participants. Youth and people with disabilities are also included, reinforcing the programme’s focus on equity and opportunity. Farming together, growing stronger Although each farmer manages her own plot, the work is rooted in cooperation. Members of Asalaam Alaykum share tasks, exchange knowledge and support one another when challenges arise.“This farm is mine,” Mtuma says, “but the learning is shared. We move forward together.”That sense of solidarity has strengthened confidence, particularly among women. Mtuma now welcomes visitors who want to learn about crab farming and is ready to share what she knows.“I didn’t have formal education in this,” she says. “But with the right support, anyone can learn and improve their life.” Looking ahead While progress is clear, challenges remain. Farmers hope for additional technical training, better equipment such as boats and traps, and improved market access to ensure fair and transparent pricing.These needs are well aligned with AFDP’s broader investments in fisheries and aquaculture — from research on mud crab breeding and feed, to strengthening farmer skills and value chains.For Mtuma, the direction is clear. “This project has helped me a lot,” she says. “It has given me a livelihood, dignity and hope for the future.

Seaweed Farming as a Pathway to Resilient Livelihoods in Zanzibar

Across the islands of Unguja and Pemba, seaweed farming remains a vital source of income for coastal communities. For many households—particularly women—it is one of the few reliable livelihood options available. However, low prices, climate-related losses and limited opportunities for value addition have long constrained the sector’s potential.Under the Agriculture and Fisheries Development Programme (AFDP), implemented from 2021 to 2027, targeted support is helping seaweed farmers strengthen productivity, improve quality and build resilience. In Zanzibar, AFDP-supported activities reach multiple coastal communities and groups across both Unguja and Pemba, supporting farmers through skills development, improved post-harvest infrastructure and opportunities for value addition, with particular attention to women, youth and persons with disabilities. Strengthening skills and farming practicesCommunity training and outreach have been central to improving seaweed farming practices. Across Unguja and Pemba, farmers have been supported to adopt better planting, handling and post-harvest techniques, helping them reduce losses and improve the overall quality of their seaweed. These trainings have also encouraged farmers to look beyond the sale of raw seaweed and explore new ways of increasing its value.In Unguja, women-led groups such as Furahia Wanawake illustrate how skills development can translate into practical change. Group members describe how learning new processing techniques enabled them to begin producing seaweed-based products, moving from small-scale manual production to more organised and efficient methods. Similar improvements in awareness of quality standards and handling practices have been reported by farmers in Pemba. Improving quality through better drying infrastructure Improved drying infrastructure has played a key role in enhancing seaweed quality and reducing climate-related risks. In both Unguja and Pemba, AFDP-supported solar dryers and rehabilitated drying racks have replaced traditional ground drying methods that exposed seaweed to sand, rain and contamination.In Micheweni, Pemba, farmers explain that before the introduction of safer drying areas, seaweed was often rejected by buyers due to poor quality. With the new drying facilities, farmers are now able to dry seaweed more quickly and hygienically, even during periods of bad weather. As one farmer noted, “Previously we dried seaweed on the ground, and it was often mixed with sand or dirt. Now we dry it in safe areas, and the seaweed is clean and accepted by buyers.” Farmers report that safer and faster drying has reduced losses and increased confidence when selling their harvest. At the same time, experiences across communities highlight the need to continue expanding drying facilities to match the number of active farmers, particularly in densely populated coastal areas. Adding value and building resilience Value addition has emerged as an important pathway for improving incomes and strengthening resilience. By processing seaweed into products such as flour and soaps, farmers—particularly women’s groups—are reducing their dependence on fluctuating raw seaweed prices and creating new income streams.In Unguja, members of the Furahia Wanawake group describe how processing seaweed has transformed their livelihoods. One group member shared, “When we were only farming and selling raw seaweed, the income was very small. After learning how to process it into products, we earn more and can better support our families.” Despite these gains, challenges remain. Climate change continues to affect production through rising temperatures, shifting currents and unpredictable rainfall. Farmers also highlight the need for stronger market linkages, continued training and investment in processing equipment to scale up value addition. Looking aheadExperiences from Unguja and Pemba show that with the right mix of skills development, infrastructure and inclusive support, seaweed farming can become a more resilient and viable livelihood. Under AFDP, these interventions are helping farmers improve quality, reduce losses and expand economic opportunities across multiple communities in Zanzibar.

Ushirikiano wa Kanada na Tanzania Unaharakisha Maendeleo katika Afya ya Mama na Vijana

Dar es Salaam/Zanzibar, 20–22 Julai 2025 — Ujumbe wa ngazi ya juu nchini Tanzania wa Mhe. Randeep Sarai, Katibu wa Jimbo la Kanada kwa Maendeleo ya Kimataifa, ameangazia athari za mabadiliko ya msaada wa muda mrefu wa Kanada kwa afya ya uzazi na vijana nchini. Ziara hiyo ilijumuisha meza ya kimkakati na washirika wa maendeleo jijini Dar es Salaam, ikifuatiwa na misheni ya Dodoma na Zanzibar, ambapo programu zinazofadhiliwa na Kanada zinawapa vijana stadi za maisha, huduma za afya ya ngono na uzazi (SRH) na mafunzo ya ufundi stadi."Msaada wa Kanada ni nguzo imara katika jitihada zetu za kuwapa vijana ujuzi, ujuzi, na huduma wanazohitaji ili kustawi. Kupitia programu hizi, tunaunda kizazi chenye uwezo na ustahimilivu zaidi," alisema Mhe. Lela Muhamed Mussa, Waziri wa Elimu na Mafunzo ya Amali Zanzibar.Jijini Dar es Salaam, UNFPA na washirika wakuu walijiunga na meza ya duara chini ya mada "Kusogeza Sindano kwa Afya: Ushirikiano wa Kanada-Tanzania". Ikisimamiwa na Kamishna Mkuu wa Kanada, mazungumzo hayo yaliwaleta pamoja washirika wa maendeleo na mashirika ya kiraia ili kujadili maendeleo na mafunzo tuliyojifunza, na kuthibitisha tena maono ya pamoja ya mfumo thabiti na wa afya unaojumuisha wote ambao haumwachi mtu nyuma.Mnamo mwaka wa 2025 pekee, Kanada ilichangia nyongeza ya Dola za kimarekani 851,667 kupitia Hazina ya Match ya Ugavi ya UNFPA, kuimarisha usalama wa uzazi wa mpango na usambazaji wa SRH. Huku zaidi ya dola milioni 15.3 zimewekezwa hadi sasa kupitia Ubia wa Ugavi wa UNFPA, Kanada inasalia kuwa mfadhili mkuu katika kuhakikisha upatikanaji wa zana za upangaji uzazi na bidhaa za afya zinazookoa maisha kote Tanzania."Msaada wa Kanada umekuwa wa kichocheo kweli," alisema Mark Bryan Schreiner, Mwakilishi wa UNFPA nchini Tanzania. "Sio tu kuhusu ufadhili - ni kuhusu ushirikiano ambao unaweka wanawake, wasichana, na vijana katika moyo wa maendeleo ya taifa. Uwekezaji huu unasaidia Tanzania kujenga mfumo wa afya unaostahimili, unaojumuisha ambao utahudumia vizazi vijavyo." Jedwali la pande zote liligundua changamoto kuu, zikiwemo uhaba wa bidhaa, majukwaa endelevu ya vijana, na uhifadhi wa wafanyakazi wa sekta ya afya. Washiriki walitoa wito wa kuendelea kwa uwekezaji, upanuzi wa miundo yenye athari ya juu, na ufadhili wa ndani wenye nguvu na umiliki wa ndani ili kuhakikisha matokeo ya muda mrefu.Huko Zanzibar, ujumbe wa HL ulitembelea Shule ya Sekondari ya Mwera Pongwe, ambapo walikaribishwa na Waziri Mussa, Mh. Emily Burns, Kamishna Mkuu wa Kanada nchini Tanzania, na wawakilishi kutoka UNFPA na UNICEF. Maonyesho ya kitamaduni ya wanafunzi na mchezo wa kuigiza kuhusu kubalehe na usafi wa hedhi ulionyesha jinsi ujuzi wa maisha na elimu ya SRHR inavyojumuishwa katika mtaala wa shule. Ujumbe huo pia ulishirikiana na waelimishaji rika kutoka kwa jamii na kliniki ya huduma rafiki kwa vijana na walengwa wa programu ya Wiki ya Iron na Folic Acid Supplementation (WIFAS), kujifunza jinsi viongozi vijana wanavyoboresha afya na lishe ya vijana.Katika kituo cha mafunzo ya ufundi ZIPOSA, timu ilikutana na vijana—hasa wasichana—wakipata ujuzi wa vitendo katika useremala, ushonaji, ukarimu, utalii, na urembo."Kabla ya kipindi hiki sikuwahi kufikiria ningeweza kusimama na kuzungumza kwa kujiamini. Sasa siogopi tena kuzungumzia mwili wangu, haki yangu, na mustakabali wangu. Kila msichana wa Zanzibar anastahili kujua kuwa ana uwezo wa kuchagua, kujilinda na kuota bila mipaka." - Fatma Othman, 17, Wakili wa Vijana wa SRHR, Zanzibar Katika kipindi cha muongo mmoja uliopita, Tanzania imepiga hatua kubwa katika afya ya uzazi, watoto wachanga, na vijana—mafanikio yaliyochochewa na uongozi wa kitaifa na ushirikiano endelevu wa kimataifa. Michango ya kimkakati ya Kanada—hasa kupitia Mfuko wa Kikapu cha Afya na usaidizi wake kwa UNFPA na UNICEF—imekuwa na jukumu muhimu katika maendeleo haya. Kwa kuzingatia Sera ya Usaidizi ya Kimataifa ya Kifeministi ya Kanada, usaidizi huu unatokana na kanuni za ujumuishi, usawa na utu wa binadamu.Tmatokeo yake ni ya kulazimisha: vifo vya uzazi vimepungua kwa kiasi kikubwa, kutoka vifo 556 hadi 104 kwa kila watoto 100,000 wanaozaliwa hai (2015–2022); wanawake zaidi wanajifungua kwa wakunga wenye ujuzi; na vijana—hasa wasichana—wameboresha upatikanaji wa huduma za SRHR, kuzuia VVU, na unyanyasaji wa kijinsia (GBV), ikiwa ni pamoja na katika maeneo ya mbali.Moja ya mipango inayoongoza ni Kuimarisha Ukunga Tanzania (SMIT) (2023–2030), ambapo Canada imetoa CAD11.75 milioni kuongeza huduma za ukunga, ikilenga Shinyanga na Dar es Salaam. Mradi huu tayari unaimarisha ubora wa matunzo na kukuza huduma za uzazi zenye heshima, zinazookoa maisha.Zaidi ya afya, dhamira ya Kanada inaenea katika programu kamili, inayozingatia vijana. Kupitia mipango ya GRREAT (2019–2024) na Kijana Imara (2024–2029), inayotekelezwa na UNFPA na UNICEF, zaidi ya vijana 740,000 (hao wengi wao wakiwa wasichana) wamefikia huduma muhimu za afya na lishe. Mipango hii pia imezindua kliniki rafiki kwa vijana, miongozo ya kitaifa ya elimu rika na kuzuia UWAKI, na ubunifu wa kidijitali kama vile “Mrejesho”, chatbot ya WhatsApp inayotumiwa sasa na zaidi ya vijana 6,000. Mitandao ya vijana, kama vile AfriYAN, inakuza sauti za vijana na kuendesha mabadiliko yanayoongozwa na rika. Kuanzia kumbi za sera hadi madarasa na warsha za jumuiya, ushirikiano wa Kanada na Tanzania unatoa matokeo yanayopimika na mabadiliko ya kudumu. Inasimama kama mfano wa kimataifa wa maendeleo ya wanawake, yanayozingatia haki katika vitendo—ambapo wanawake, wasichana, na vijana sio walengwa tu, bali viongozi wanaounda mustakabali wenye afya na usawa zaidi kwa wote.

Jenga Madaraja, Sio Mipaka: Wito wa Kukabiliana na Matamshi ya Chuki

Na Susan Namondo, Mratibu Mkazi wa Umoja wa Mataifa na Michel Toto, Mwakilishi wa UNESCO nchini TanzaniaKatika ulimwengu unaozidi kuwa na mgawanyiko, kuongezeka kwa matamshi ya chuki ni zaidi ya kero ya kidijitali; ni tishio la moja kwa moja kwa amani, ushirikishwaji, na maendeleo endelevu. Tunapoadhimisha Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kupinga Matamshi ya Chuki, tunakumbushwa juu ya wajibu wetu wa pamoja wa kudumisha utu wa binadamu na kukataa aina zote za ubaguzi.Mnamo Julai 2021, Baraza Kuu la Umoja wa Mataifa lilikubali kuongezeka kwa hatari ya matamshi ya chuki, na kupitisha azimio la kihistoria ambalo linakuza mazungumzo ya kidini na kitamaduni yanayokitwa katika sheria za kimataifa za haki za binadamu. Azimio hili pia liliteua Juni 18 kuwa Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kukabiliana na Matamshi ya Chuki, likiimarisha Mkakati na Mpango wa Utekelezaji wa Umoja wa Mataifa wa 2019 kuhusu Matamshi ya Chuki.Matamshi ya chuki si mapya. Hata hivyo, majukwaa ya kidijitali yameongeza kasi yake, ufikiaji na athari zake. Kuanzia unyanyasaji wa kijinsia hadi uchochezi wa kikabila, matamshi ya chuki yamepata nguvu kubwa mtandaoni, ikihatarisha haki za binadamu, kuchochea migogoro na kudhoofisha mshikamano wa kijamii.Hata hivyo, jitihada za kupinga matamshi ya chuki wakati mwingine huitwa vibaya kuwa ‘zimeamka’ au kuwa sahihi kisiasa. Uundaji kama huo sio sahihi na ni hatari. Kukataa chuki sio kunyamazisha maoni; ni juu ya kudumisha heshima, utu, na mazungumzo ya kweli. Inawezekana—na kwa kweli ni muhimu—kulinda uhuru wa kujieleza huku tukiweka mstari kwenye uchochezi, kudhalilisha utu na madhara. Kuzungumza dhidi ya chuki sio vita vya kitamaduni-ni utetezi wa ubinadamu wa pamoja.Akili Mnemba (AM) hujumuisha changamoto hii. Ingawa kanuni za (AM) zinaweza kuimarisha maudhui hatari kwa faida au umaarufu, pia hutoa masuluhisho kama vile kutambua matamshi ya chuki, kutabiri migogoro na kuwezesha mifumo ya tahadhari ya mapema. Kuhakikisha teknolojia hizi zinatawaliwa kimaadili na kuzingatia haki za binadamu ni muhimu. Umoja wa Mataifa unaendeleza hili kupitia mipango kama vile Mkataba wa Kimataifa wa Kidijitali. Mbele ya Pamoja Dhidi ya ChukiMnamo 2019 Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa alizindua Mkakati na Mpango wa Utekelezaji wa Umoja wa Mataifa kuhusu Matamshi ya Chuki ili kuunga mkono Nchi Wanachama katika kushughulikia na kupinga matamshi ya chuki huku akilinda uhuru wa kujieleza na maoni.Mwaka huu, tunahimiza kila mtu ajihusishe na kampeni ya #NoToHate, ambayo inakuza ufahamu wa matamshi ya chuki, habari potofu na habari potofu, na kutoa zana na nyenzo za kusaidia kuzishughulikia kazini na uwepo wako mtandaoni.UNESCO imetoa zana za kusaidia mataifa, mifumo ya kidijitali, na mashirika ya kiraia katika kushughulikia matamshi ya chuki kwa kuwajibika. Rasilimali kuu ni pamoja na:Kulinda Sauti Muhimu: Mwongozo wa kutathmini athari za haki za binadamu za mifumo ya kidijitali.Mwongozo wa Utawala wa Mifumo ya Kidijitali na mshirika wa watetezi wa AI genereshi kwa ajili ya udhibiti jumuishi, unaozingatia haki.Kufunika Hotuba ya Chuki: Mwongozo kwa Wanahabari, unaokuza uandishi wa habari wenye maadili, hasa muhimu katika miktadha nyeti kama vile uchaguzi.Waandishi wa habari na vyombo vya habari ni washirika wa lazima katika juhudi hii. Jukumu lao si kukuza chuki, bali kufichua vyanzo na athari zake. Kudhibiti usawa kati ya kushikilia uhuru wa kujieleza na kuzuia matumizi mabaya yake kunaongozwa na viwango vya kimataifa na utendaji wa kimaadili.Katika enzi ya leo ya habari potofu na uwongo wa kina, Usomaji wa Vyombo vya Habari na Habari (MIL) huwapa watu binafsi, hasa vijana, zana za kupambanua, changamoto na kukabiliana na maudhui hatari. Zana ya UNESCO ya MILtiverse Toolkit, iliyotengenezwa na washirika chini ya mpango unaofadhiliwa na EU wa "Social Media 4 Peace", huwezesha mashirika ya vijana kupachika MIL katika mikakati na ufikiaji wao.Watu wanapoelewa jinsi habari inavyoundwa, kubadilishwa, na kusambazwa, wanakuwa watetezi wenye nguvu wa ukweli, uvumilivu, na amani.Maadhimisho ya Umoja wa Mataifa ni zaidi ya ishara. Wanachochea utashi wa kisiasa, kukuza uwajibikaji, na kuhimiza ushiriki wa umma. Siku ya Kimataifa ya Kupinga Matamshi ya Chuki ni wito wa kuchukua hatua: kukataa chuki si kazi ya mtu mwingine bali ni wajibu wa kila mtu.Kwa utamaduni wake wa muda mrefu wa umoja na mazungumzo, Tanzania ina nafasi ya kipekee ya kuongoza juhudi za ndani, kitaifa na kikanda za kukuza uvumilivu na nafasi salama za kidijitali. Walakini, faida kama hiyo haipaswi kupuuzwa. Kuongezeka kwa ukali mtandaoni, matamshi ya uchochezi wakati wa mizunguko ya uchaguzi, na mashambulizi ya mtandaoni ya kijinsia dhidi ya viongozi wanawake na waandishi wa habari kunazidi kuwa wasiwasi. Watanzania lazima wakatae kuhalalisha usemi unaohatarisha maelewano. Hebu tuchangamkie fursa hii kukuza sauti shirikishi, kupunguza migawanyiko, na kukuza mazingira ya kidijitali yenye misingi ya heshima.Katika siku hii, na kila siku, hebu tuthibitishe ukweli rahisi: chuki haitatufafanua. Mshikamano mapenzi.

Tanzania Yaanzisha Mapinduzi ya Kilimo cha Kidijitali kwa Mkutano wa Pamoja wa Kuanzisha Programu

Tanzania imechukua hatua ya ujasiri kuelekea kuboresha sekta yake ya kilimo kupitia mabadiliko ya kidijitali kwa kufanikiwa kuitisha mkutano wa kickstart wa Mpango wa Pamoja wa Data for Digital Agricultural Transformation. Mpango huu, unaoungwa mkono na Serikali ya Tanzania, mashirika ya Umoja wa Mataifa, na washirika wa maendeleo, unalenga kuongeza ufanisi, kuwawezesha wakulima kufanya maamuzi yanayotokana na data, na kuboresha usalama wa chakula kupitia uvumbuzi wa kidijitali.Sekta ya kilimo inasalia kuwa uti wa mgongo wa uchumi wa Tanzania, ikichangia zaidi ya asilimia 65 ya ajira na karibu theluthi moja ya Pato la Taifa. Hata hivyo, sekta hiyo inakabiliwa na changamoto zinazoendelea, ikiwa ni pamoja na tija ndogo, upatikanaji mdogo wa huduma za kifedha, uzembe wa soko, na hatari ya mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa. Uwekaji dijitali hutoa suluhisho za kubadilisha mchezo, na Mpango wa Pamoja umeundwa kushughulikia changamoto hizi kwa kutoa data ya kilimo ya wakati halisi, huduma za kifedha za dijiti, na zana za ujasusi wa soko kwa wakulima wadogo. Mkutano wa Pamoja wa Kick-Start ulileta pamoja washikadau wakuu, wakiwemo wawakilishi wa serikali, maafisa wa Umoja wa Mataifa, na wataalam wa kilimo ili kuelezea ramani ya utekelezaji wa mpango huu wa mabadiliko. Kama mkutano wa kwanza wa pamoja kati ya Wizara ya Kilimo na washirika, kikao kililenga kukagua, kukubaliana, na kuidhinisha mpango wa utekelezaji, na pia kuunganisha miongozo ya majadiliano ya kiufundi na ushiriki. Vipengele hivi ni sehemu muhimu ya utendakazi wa Mpango wa Pamoja unaofadhiliwa na EU.Mpango huo utaendesha ufanisi na uvumbuzi katika sekta ya kilimo kupitia nguzo tatu za kimkakati: Kuimarisha Mifumo ya Takwimu za Kilimo kwa kuimarisha upatikanaji na utumiaji wa data ya kilimo ya wakati halisi kwa utengenezaji bora wa sera na ugawaji wa rasilimali; Kuongeza Suluhisho za Teknolojia ya Kilimo kwa kuwapa wakulima huduma za ushauri zinazotegemea rununu, sasisho za hali ya hewa, na zana za ujumuishaji wa kifedha; na Kuimarisha Ushirikiano wa Umma na Kibinafsi kwa kushirikisha sekta binafsi kuwekeza katika kilimo cha dijiti, kuhakikisha uendelevu wa muda mrefu.Akizungumza katika hafla hiyo, Mheshimiwa Dk. Hussein Omar, Naibu Katibu Mkuu wa Wizara ya Kilimo, alithibitisha dhamira ya serikali ya kutumia teknolojia ili kuongeza ufanisi wa kilimo. Alisisitiza kuwa suluhisho za kidijitali zitawawezesha wakulima wadogo kupata rasilimali muhimu kama vile fedha, bima, na mbinu za kilimo zinazolingana na hali ya hewa. Mpango wa Pamoja unaongozwa na mashirika ya Umoja wa Mataifa, pamoja na UNCDF, FAO, IFAD, na UNDP, chini ya uratibu wa Ofisi ya Mratibu Mkazi wa Umoja wa Mataifa.Kwa mujibu wa Susan Ngongi Namondo, Mratibu Mkazi wa Umoja wa Mataifa nchini Tanzania, kilimo cha kidijitali kitakuwa kichocheo muhimu cha mabadiliko ya kiuchumi, kuhakikisha kuwa wakulima wananufaika na ubunifu wa kisasa na mifumo ya ujumuishaji wa kifedha."Kwa kutumia zana za kidijitali, tunaweza kuziba pengo kati ya wakulima wadogo na fursa mpya, kuhakikisha kuwa wana data ya wakati halisi, ufikiaji wa soko, na zana za kifedha wanazohitaji ili kustawi," Mratibu Mkazi wa Umoja wa Mataifa alisema.Awamu inayofuata ya Mpango wa Pamoja itazingatia majaribio ya zana za kilimo cha dijiti katika mikoa iliyochaguliwa kabla ya kuongeza nchi nzima. Zaidi ya hayo, Kamati ya Uongozi ya Pamoja ya Programu (JPSC) itahakikisha kuwa utekelezaji unaendelea kuendana na sera za kitaifa na mbinu bora.Mkutano huo ulihitimishwa kwa ahadi mpya kutoka kwa wadau wote kufanya kazi pamoja katika kuhakikisha kuwa mabadiliko ya kilimo cha kidijitali Tanzania yanajumuisha, endelevu, na yanazingatia wakulima.

Kwa Wanawake na Wasichana Wote: Haki. Usawa. Kuwezesha. Taarifa ya Pamoja kutoka kwa Mfumo wa Umoja wa Mataifa nchini Tanzania

Miaka thelathini iliyopita, ulimwengu ulikusanyika huko Beijing kuunda maono ya ujasiri: siku zijazo ambapo usawa wa kijinsia sio tu matarajio bali ukweli ulioishi. Tunapoadhimisha Siku hii ya Kimataifa ya Wanawake, kuadhimisha kumbukumbu ya ahadi hiyo ya kihistoria, tunatambua maendeleo makubwa yaliyopatikana kwa wanawake na wasichana na changamoto zinazoendelea.Tangu kupitishwa kwa Azimio la Beijing na Jukwaa la Utekelezaji mwaka 1995, Tanzania imepiga hatua kubwa katika kuendeleza haki za wanawake na wasichana. Wasichana wengi zaidi kuliko hapo awali wanajiandikisha na kukaa shuleni, afya ya uzazi imeimarika sana, na upatikanaji wa huduma za kuzuia na matibabu ya VVU kwa wanawake na wasichana umepanuka. Ushiriki wa kiuchumi wa wanawake unakua, na kuongezeka kwa upatikanaji wa ujumuishaji wa kifedha, fursa za ujasiriamali, na ajira rasmi. Juhudi za kuzuia na kukabiliana na unyanyasaji wa kijinsia zimeimarishwa. Wanawake zaidi wanaongoza katika uvumbuzi na ujasiriamali-kuendesha uanzishaji, kuunda tasnia zinazoibuka, na kuendeleza suluhisho za kiteknolojia. Zaidi ya hayo, uongozi wa wanawake katika serikali, biashara, na diplomasia unaendelea kupanuka, huku mwanamke akiongoza taifa kama ishara yenye nguvu ya maendeleo.Mafanikio haya ni ushuhuda wa juhudi za pamoja na kujitolea bila kuyumba kwa usawa wa kijinsia. Walakini, licha ya maendeleo haya, vizuizi vinavyoendelea vinabaki.Leo, tunasimama katika wakati wa kufafanua—ambapo tunaweza kuwa kizazi cha kwanza kufikia usawa wa kijinsia na kuhakikisha kuwa hakuna mwanamke au msichana anayeachwa nyuma. Ili kufanya hivyo, lazima tuharakishe maendeleo na kuimarisha kujitolea kwetu kwa hatua za mabadiliko ya kijinsia.Kuwekeza katika elimu ya wasichana na uwezeshaji wa wanawake kiuchumi sio tu juu ya haki, ingawa hiyo yenyewe ni sababu inayofaa kama yoyote; Uwekezaji huu ni vichocheo vyenye nguvu vya ukuaji na ustawi wa kitaifa. Kuandaa wanawake na wasichana ujuzi wa kidijitali na upatikanaji wa teknolojia kutafungua fursa mpya katika uchumi wa kidijitali. Kuimarisha mifumo ya kuzuia na kukabiliana na unyanyasaji wa kijinsia ni muhimu vile vile, kuhakikisha kwamba kila mwanamke, msichana, na mvulana anaweza kuishi bila hofu na madhara. Zaidi ya hayo, kupanua uongozi wa wanawake katika kufanya maamuzi kutasababisha sera jumuishi zaidi na uwakilishi zinazoendesha maendeleo endelevu kwa manufaa ya wote.Wakati Tanzania na ulimwengu wanakabiliana na changamoto za mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa, wanawake na wasichana lazima wawe mstari wa mbele katika suluhisho-kuongoza juhudi katika uendelevu, uhifadhi, na ustahimilivu wa mazingira. Mpango muhimu katika juhudi hizi ni Mpango wa Kupikia Safi wa Tanzania, ambao unalenga kupanua upatikanaji wa ufumbuzi safi wa kupikia, kupunguza utegemezi wa mafuta ya jadi, kuboresha matokeo ya afya, kuwawezesha wanawake kiuchumi, na kuchangia kupunguza uzalishaji wa kaboni.Dira ya Maendeleo ya Tanzania ya 2050 (TDV 2050) inaweka mkondo kabambe wa ukuaji endelevu wa uchumi, mabadiliko ya kiteknolojia, na maendeleo ya binadamu. Kufikia maono haya kunahitaji kuweka usawa wa kijinsia katikati ya juhudi za maendeleo ya kitaifa. Hii inahitaji mabadiliko ya ujasiri, ya kimfumo ambayo yanafafanua upya kanuni za kijamii na kiuchumi, kuhakikisha kuwa wanawake na wasichana wana fursa sawa, wakala, na upatikanaji wa rasilimali. Kwa kuwawezesha wanawake na wasichana kama wajasiriamali, viongozi, na waleta mabadiliko, Tanzania itajenga uchumi jumuishi, unaotegemea maarifa ambapo hakuna mtu anayeachwa nyuma.Tunapoendelea kufanya kazi kuelekea usawa wa kijinsia, Azimio la Beijing na Jukwaa la Utekelezaji linasalia kuwa mfumo wa mabadiliko zaidi wa kimataifa wa kufikia haki za wanawake. Lengo bado halijabadilika: kuhakikisha kwamba kila mtu, bila kujali jinsia, ikiwa ni pamoja na watu waliohamishwa kwa nguvu ana fursa ya kufikia uwezo wao kamili. Kwa kuondoa vizuizi vya usawa, tunaunda familia zenye nguvu, uchumi thabiti zaidi, na jamii zinazostawi.Katika Siku hii ya Kimataifa ya Wanawake—na kila siku—mfumo wa Umoja wa Mataifa nchini Tanzania unasimama kwa fahari pamoja na Serikali na wadau wote katika kuleta maendeleo. Tumejitolea kugeuza matarajio kuwa mabadiliko endelevu kupitia ushirikiano thabiti, kuongezeka kwa uwekezaji, na hatua za ujasiri.Tunatazamia kuendeleza juhudi zetu za pamoja za kutimiza kikamilifu maono ya Azimio la Beijing, kutetea haki, usawa, na uwezeshaji kwa wanawake na wasichana wote.

UJUMBE JUU YA SIKU YA KIMATAIFA YA WATU WENYE ULEMAVU

Watu wenye ulemavu wanabadilisha jamii - kuongoza uvumbuzi, kushawishi sera, na kuhamasisha haki. Walakini mara nyingi, wananyimwa nafasi kwenye meza ya kufanya maamuzi.Azimio la Kisiasa la Doha, lililopitishwa katika Mkutano wa Dunia wa Maendeleo ya Jamii mwezi uliopita, linathibitisha ukweli muhimu: hakuwezi kuwa na maendeleo endelevu bila kujumuishwa kwa watu wenye ulemavu.Watu wenye ulemavu huleta maendeleo ambayo yanatunufaisha sisi sote. Uongozi wao umeboresha jitihada za maandalizi dhidi ya maafa, kupanua elimu jumuishi na ajira, na kuhakikisha jitihada za kibinadamu zinawafikia wale walio hatarini zaidi.Ubunifu mwingi unaounda maisha yetu ya kila siku - kutoka kwa ujumbe mfupi wa maandishi hadi teknolojia iliyoamilishwa kwa sauti - ilianza kama suluhisho zilizotengenezwa na watu wenye ulemavu kwa ajili ya watu wenye ulemavu. Bado vizuizi vya kimfumo vinaendelea: ubaguzi, umaskini, na huduma zisizoweza kufikiwa zinaendelea kupunguza ushiriki wa zaidi ya watu bilioni moja wenye ulemavu ulimwenguni.Katika Siku hii ya Kimataifa ya Watu Wenye Ulemavu, wacha tujitolee kufanya kazi bega kwa bega na watu wenye ulemavu katika utofauti wao wote, kama washirika sawa.Wakati ujumuishaji ni wa kweli, kila mtu anafaidika. Kwa pamoja, tunaweza kujenga jamii zinazoweza kufikiwa zaidi na zenye ustahimilivu ambapo sisi sote tunastawi.
