Tanzania

DVV International is committed to the structural improvement of youth and adult education in Tanzania. The national program started in 2020, and in 2021, the East Africa/Horn of Africa Regional Office was relocated from Ethiopia to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Although the Tanzanian government has introduced various policies and programs in non-formal adult education to enhance educational opportunities for youth and adults, there are significant challenges in the coordinated and effective implementation of these programs. In particular, young people and adults in rural areas are barely reached by these educational measures, as reflected in the still high illiteracy rate of around 20% (Census 2022).

Main Focus of DVV International's Work in Tanzania

DVV International provides particularly technical support to the MoEST and President office, Regional Administration and Local Government (PO-RALG) on measures to strengthen the adult education system in order to effectively combat poverty in the country and the region as a whole to contribute.

Areas of Focus:

Policy and Guidelines: DVV International advises relevant stakeholders on revising the national adult education program, focusing on functional literacy and community development. The program has been expanded to include current target-group-oriented approaches and effective coordination structures. Goals and indicators for non-formal adult education were also established for the first time in the new national education development plan.
Capacity Building: DVV International strengthens the capacities of governmental actors in training, monitoring, and budget planning within the national adult education program. The institute also trains master trainers for the Curriculum globALE to ensure quality training structures from the national to the community level.
Community-Based Learning Offers: Technical advice is provided for piloting community-based learning centers, which offer comprehensive adult education services to community members.
