When women lead, communities thrive💪🏾

Thanks to support from Finland🇫🇮, Sweden🇸🇪, Switzerland🇨🇭 & the United States🇺🇸, transformational leadership training has boosted women’s confidence and ambition to lead. Of those trained ahead of local government elections in 2024, 73% were nominated, with over 60% elected to various local government leadership roles.

In 🇹🇿, women spend 4.5 hrs daily on unpaid care work. With your support, we're changing this thru policies, childcare, & clean cooking solutions. It’s time for shared responsibilities!  Huge thanks to @CanadaTanzania for funding transformative approaches to #UnpaidCare! 💪#SDG5

[UN Women Tanzania @unwomentanzania]

Just completed our workshop on enhancing branding & digital skills for women entrepreneurs in Kigoma!

Excited to see women entrepreneurs evolve on digital platforms, leveraging new tools to grow their business and reach wider markets.

Congratulations Hon Minister on the launch of the NAP-EVAWC. It’s a major milestone for human rights of the women & children in Tanzania. @unwomentanzania walked with you the long journey on the development of the NAP. We remain committed to its implementation.

I don’t believe you’re ever fully “ready” for anything. Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and allow God to lead. You’ll learn as you go.

God, if I'm not where you need me to be, I pray you give me the grace and strength that I need to get there.

Wait till you see why God made you wait.
