Women  Initiatives  Tanzania  Summary    Art  in  Tanzania  supports  and  develops  village  women  initiatives.  The  main  inputs  are  vocational  training  in  English,  IT,  entrepreneurship,  women  rights  and  related  subjects.  We  are  also  developing  medical  services  and  health  information  sessions.    Details    Tanzania  has  a  large  group  of  young  mothers  in  the  villages  that  have  little  or  no  education  and  are  without  financial  support.    Additionally,  areas  are  often  heavily  populated,  which  complicates  the  strive  of  livelihood  and  provision  for  these  Mother’s  children.    Most  of  these  women  lack  the  opportunity  to  reach  education  or  means  to  fund  and  develop  small  businesses.    Additionally,  many  of  these  women  are  under-­‐empowered  or  unaware  of  their  basic  human  rights,  thus  making  young  mothers  vulnerable  for  abuse.      Art  in  Tanzania  is  focusing  to  deliver  skills  for  women  to  start  their  own  small  businesses  and  to  create  markets  to  their  products.  At  the  same  time  we  educate  women  rights  and  related  subjects  so  that  women  will  learn  their  rights  in  problem  situations.  We  focus  to  be  both  innovative  and  effective.      We  are  looking  for  to  hire  multi  professional  students  and  interns  to  support  our  work.  We  tailor  the  posts  according  the  participants  focus  and  interests  and  skills.  We  look  for  to  be  innovative.  Interns  bring  their  ideas  that  we  look  for  to  implement  to  strengthen  the  fieldwork.  We  encourage  innovation  and  a  self-­‐led  creativity  in  the  professional  program  approach.    Work  with  women  is  under-­‐funded  but  Art  in  Tanzania  has  multi  professional  interns  and  volunteers.  We  use  teamwork  to  create  opportunities.  One  can  teach  how  to  start  horticulture  and  one  can  look  for  the  markets.  The  base  effort  is  to  increase  the  small  business  skills  through  educational  approach  and  to  increase  awareness.    We  also  focus  to  give  visibility  of  women  issues  through  social  media  for  the  Tanzanian  general  population.      Mrs.  Sonja  Lauren  and  Mr.  Michael  Sungu  tutor  this  program.
