Oxfam is an international confederation of 19 organizations working
together in over 90 countries and with partners and allies around the
world to find lasting solutions to poverty and injustice. We work
directly with communities and seek to influence the powerful to ensure
that poor people can improve their lives and livelihoods and have a say
in decisions that affect them. Our focus areas are development,
emergencies, campaigning, advocacy and policy research.
Planning and implementation of Oxfam programme in Tanzania is
informed by the Oxfam in Tanzania (OiTZ) Country Strategy for 2015 -
2019 which has a vision of an inclusive, equitable and just Tanzanian
society, where citizens especially women and young people enjoy their
rights and have access to resources necessary to live good lives and as
active citizens of the country. Women empowerment is a priority goal
that is integrated within the Oxfam country strategy (OCS), which aims
to see women, are economically, socially and politically empowered to be
transformative leaders and change agents within their households and
community.
To achieve this goal; OiTZ is implementing a programme for greater
gender equity, women and youth empowerment in five regions of Arusha,
Lindi, Manyara, Mtwara, Shinyanga, Geita and Simiyu. The programme is in
its third year of implementation and many changes have been realized to
the life of our target community.
Furthermore, Women continue to suffer in the face of patriarchal
cultural attitudes, behaviour and beliefs affecting their access to and
ownership of resources, and access to essential services. These
practices continue to negatively affect attitudes and support aimed at
eliminating Violence Against Women (VAW).
Oxfam in Tanzania strategy ensures that women and girls are at the
centre of its work. It is from this juncture that Oxfam in Tanzania
embarked in working with other affiliates in building its work around
Unpaid Care and Domestic Work (UCDW) since 2016 although its engagement
has been mostly in the invited spaces. Since 2018, Oxfam In Tanzania
strengthened its engagement on UCDW focusing mainly on building the
network of women’s rights organizations which will challenge and
influence policy makers to recognize and allocate funds for UCDW.
To influence shifts in policies and practice around UCDW, Gender Based Violence (GBV) and access to essential services, Oxfam in Tanzania uses different strategies to reach out to policy makers, communities, WRO and public. This includes use of media for public campaigning and mobilizes support around these issues. Oxfam in Tanzania believes that the use of media as a strategy is based on the theory that repeated and sustained messaging coming from diverse quarters, to keep the audience engaged on the issue will contribute in the change.
It is from this juncture that Oxfam in Tanzania intends to engage a consultant with the experience on the mass mobilization to produce various content for media engagement. The consultant will work together with mainstream media, social media influencers and bloggers to popularise the approved content on social media and other media outlets to raise awareness on selected topics.
The campaign will also seek to influence national and regional political parties’ leaders to come out, encourage and promote genuine participation of women, young people and people with disabilities in the forthcoming local elections as candidates and voters. Leaders will also be encouraged to speak out about how their party policies, manifestos and practise encourages the participation of women, young people and people with disabilities in the electoral process. Leaders will also call upon their followers to stop electoral GBV which is the main stumbling block for participation of marginalised groups in elections.
